Would you expect to get more than a normal amount of flaking if one was fire forming .25-06 nickel plated cases to 6.5-06 Ackley Improved 40 degree? I've got lots of brass 6.5-06 AI cases so don't even need to do it except for the novelty of having some. My understanding is that nickel plated cases can be harder on sizing dies due to eventual flaking of nickel with extended use.
