[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 2078208, member: 18849"] Actually the head separations may have started on the first firing as 06 brass. The "thin" spots created then are the "weak" spots and are the first to stretch each firing even when bump is set correctly. All or the majority of the stretching happens in the same area each time. I agree that the cutaway section shows little if any stretching. Using your "paper clip" test on the latest (shiny ring) cases will give you a good feel for the rest. Although salvaging the last 19 cases that already may be at "half life" is about $10 worth of value.....maybe not worth the gamble of "scarring" your chamber. ?? [/QUOTE]
