Do I throw away this whole lot of brass?

[QUOTE="Troutslayer2, post: 2093697, member: 25190"] Took it to my guy today. We looked at the reamer print, compared that to measurements taken off the spent brass. Go/No Go/Field Gauges all checked out and the chamber is extremely tight for the cartridge. The consensus is that the Nosler brass is garbage and considering how hard I am running it that maybe I should consider myself lucky to have gotten that many firings out of it. There is nothing wrong with the chamber but I left it there and he’s going to polish it and also pin my pic rail. I’ve been pushing 168 grain bullets at 2900FPS from a 22” tube and I guess I should probably pay more attention to pressure signs or get used to buying brass. Might keep shooting at that velocity with the Peterson brass and see how well it holds up. The other node with this barrel is way lower. [/QUOTE]
