ok i got a few questions here,
ive got a ton of brass and while going through it with a buddy he pointed out what looked more like a nick to me and stated that a split in the neck on about 3 out of 10 pieces, the split/nick whatever was very small and could really on be felt by rubbing your fingernail over it.
so the question is how can you really tell the difference between a split cracked neck vs just a small scrach or nick from the chamber locking lugs from an AR 15
next question if these nicks/splits are small enough is the brass still safe to load or should i discard it.
I don't think that he was saying this to get free brass since even my bad brass i keep for scrap once my buckets are full of brass i take it down and sell it.
most of my brass is range scavaged brass so its not like its going to cost me anything to pitch it but I really don't want to pitch brass that still has life left in it.
thanks in advance for your help on this
