[QUOTE="eod.mickelson, post: 2721289, member: 108616"] I gave this a shot, and also picked up some once fired brass from the hide to compare (an expensive experiment), I did full case prep, seated a bullet in the torched looking, not torched looking, and once fired. The neck thickness of the once fired was a bit thicker before and after seating, but the spring back was the same at .002. also, anecdotally, using my hammer to pull the projectiles, they took nearly the same amount of hits/force to get the projectiles out. Going to load up 3 shots with each type of brass and compare velocity/es/sd/and group size. But judging by what I saw loading and removing projecgiles, looks like maybe they're okay? I still think I'll load the "torched looking" for practice and normal looking ones for hunting. The lot I picked up on the hide are all once fired matching lot, and mine all came from factory ammo, a few with different lots, so maybe I'll practice more on what I've got, confirm the new lot and transition to those.
