[QUOTE="Daveinjax, post: 683976, member: 48429"] I'm with Jim on shooting them until they give up. If the primer pockets are truly loose after 3 loadings you are loading too hot. Need to tune it down a bit. Cutting case life more than half for a 1% or 1.5% gain in velocity is something most all of us get over. If you are asking if you need to thow away cases then it is very unlikely you are to the point in shooting range that 30 to 50 fps will affect anything but your feelings. I think most of us pushed the loads really hot when we start but get tired of buying powder and brass for nothing. If there was no signs other than the primers go in easy I would load them again. $110.00 + shipping a hundred is a bunch of green to just throw away. [/QUOTE]
