RE: 44-77 brass
UPs truck brought my box of brass. This doesn't look to be annealed as well as the early lots.

Don, You can always anneal it, getting it is what counts.

Yessir, it is very well polished brass, and looks to be quite uniform. Head stamp is different now, says JAB.

Hmmm? What does JAB stand for? I liked it saying "Jamison."

Believe it to mean Jamison Ammo and Brass. That's what the paper tags inside the bag say.

Most likely. How is the caliber designated? My older brass says just ".44/77" but they might have added "Sharps BN" like they do on the .44/90s.
