[QUOTE="JimmyCP, post: 1587609, member: 106166"] I wouldn't give up on them that easy. Brass is hardened by getting to a dull red color cooled slowly then worked with a press or a hammer. Basically what happens when you fire it and then resize. I would load up some light loads and fire them a couple times let them all get hard again. Unless you totally burned the alloy elements out I would give it a try. I've got some lapua and go west trading brass for the 338 lapua that was what I considered was over cooked from the factory. I Neck sized only 3 times after fire forming with light loads then anealed. All shot consistent and still do. Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
