[QUOTE="nkyshooter, post: 2090885, member: 83787"] hmm ... not hot loads and an ackley chamber makes me think that the headspace might be a bit on the long side (excessive) ... have you checked it? Are you full length sizing each time? ... and if so, I'd be interested to know how much it is getting set back each time. If headspace is at or near 'minimal' then I'd say this brass maybe shouldn't be used anymore ... FYI - I've got cases with lots higher number of reloads on them and the case heads are in great shape ... my issues typically begin with split necks (for cartridges in which I am using traditional neck and/or full length sizing methods) ...
