If you notice the guy dosn't mention the manufacturer. I also don't buy the statement that guy down the firing line just so happens to be firing the same ammo from the (SAME LOT). Now what are the chances of that. With out having the actual cases to measure and test the hardness (you would need proper equipment to test the hardness of the brass)we will never know. They could just go out and buy a box of hornady or some other brand and see if the cases develop the same split.
I would think the chances could be pretty good that two people were shooting the same lot of ammunition. There are a million people living in the valley where I live but very few places to buy ammunition and not many places to shot it. Most of the people shooting on the local range in say Abbotsford probably bought their ammo at either Cabelas of the local sporting store. Most of the ammunition of a particular caliber and brand sold at the local cabelas this month will likely be from the same lot and the the local sports shop will likely be selling the same lot of ammo for months.
There are many places where shooters purchasing new ammunition for a particular caliber are likely to only be offered the same lot of ammo for a considerable periods of time.
