[QUOTE="derfssor, post: 2239793, member: 117636"] Time and humidity IS the culprit. I have seen this several times through the years. In every case the rounds were old and the bullets were locked to the neck. Pressure and corrosion together weaken the neck shoulder area and you see what happens. If stored in a dry area this will not happen. I have personally had reloads that i have shot that were 35 years old and worked just fine. After inspecting the case after shooting, they looked just fine. just my 2 cents from an old man. The old sayed, keep your powder dry, still stands.😀😎 [/QUOTE]
