After a session at my local clubs shooting range, I found and picked up a dozen or so Winchester Nickel Plated 300 WSM Brass mixed in with regular brass of the same make. As I began resizing them this evening to 270 WSM with the intent to outside neck turn them to match the neck thickness of my regular Winchester 270 WSM brass. I then started to think: Can I neck turn nickel plated brass? Will it dull my cutter? Will it cause issues with annealing? Will this work or should I just toss them?

Thoughts?
