Maybe somebody on here that is at the SHOT show can fill us in on it. Not interested if I can't reload it but watching it none the less.

Never heard of the Sierra poly ammo.But,I have read posts about polymer cases and injection molded bullets.I think the military considering poly ammo because of the weight reduction over brass. I guess they would be good for hunting. But not good reloading because the case neck gets chewed up by the ejector.
Anyway I can’t remember where I read it. But I have seen this video on YouTube about polymer cases ammo.

Didn't thinks so how would get the neck tension back? Bound to loose material in the neck when it's fired.
