Check the stickies in reloading forum.  It talks about the varying qualities of brass.

It is a old ammunition manufacturer.  Head stamp is marked AMERC. It's all brass but complete junk.  Actually had a few pieces go through the sizer and have absolutely no bullet tension.  The brass wasn't split either.  Goes in the scrap brass bin when I see it.

A-MERC has also had off center flash holes in addition to the other lovely qualities listed above. I went right inot the scrap brass bin for disposal at the recycler.

Nope!  Entirely different manufacture.
