[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 195105, member: 9215"] "I'm inclined to toss the whole batch of brass, " I think your inclination is a good one. Annealing will surely extend the life of your brass but you have gotten good service from it already. Time to let it go! Doubt that varying tension is the cause of your loss of accuracy, except for sure the split neck round. That will surely put a hole out of any group! Your neck split is a common type. The shoulder gets little work so it doesn't harden and split very often and the case mouth tends to be the softest part so splits generally occur between those two points. [/QUOTE]
