I had a box that a guy gave me. They were "Natech" or "Nateck" I think. They shot ok, but about half of them were split at the bottleneck after firing

Found this and this. Seems the folks making this were in business a few years ago and didn't have much luck with it.

Captain.... All is not lost with that brass. Pulling the plastic off and punching out the primer. You now have a "Hollywood Blank Adapter".

Save them.................
