[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 1070271, member: 50867"] The pdf file is pretty large - but I did finally get to download. That's a pretty deep dent and if that dent in the image has penetrated the case I'd trash it. Also, the color of the case causes me to suspect it's been annealed. Rhetorical question, to be sure be, was it done properly? I've found that most minor dents in cases aren't serious as long as they haven't caused cracks in the body of the case. Most of them just iron out. Case shoulder dents can often be traced to too much lube in resizing but it's always a very good idea to do a complete and thorough check of the interior of dies and give them a regular cleaning.
