Hi there,

I've made a mess of FL resizing a few of my cases. They've got small dents on the shoulder running from the case body to the neck. (too much lube ... and I didn't pick it up till about 8-10 were dented)

I'd chuck the cases away, but they're virtually brand new and if I can safely fire them to pop the dents out, then I'd be happy to.

That's a minor mistake, easily remedied. Just shoot em. Maybe not in a BR match, but normal range work is fine.

Possibly wouldn't even notice in a BR match, but those guys are Anal to the Max (usually with good reason too).

No worries. Cheers:)
 
Thanks. I had always thought the same thing, having saved what few dented cases I have, wondering if I should shoot them or not. Now I know.
