From the comments I gather that they might be reloadable, but the maker hasn't tried it yet and probably won't.

Wanna be the first to try? :P

TheFirearmBlog just posted another post about polymer cased ammunition. This time it is a polymer casing with a metal base in rifle calibers. It sounds interesting and if they can get the price of 6.8 SPC down, I just might get into the caliber.
