[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2786805, member: 122164"] ejector marks only hurt your pride, but primer pockets are probably loose. I de-cap with a hand de-capper and use a hand; priming tool to catch loose primer pockets, gas leakage around the primer pocket will burn holes in the bolt face. As another poster said, "trash it", but learn something in the process by hand de-priming. I have seen brass with ejector marks where a large paper clip that has been straightened would push the primer out of the case. Of course, there are degrees of how bad the ejector marks are, and there is a huge difference between ejector marks on Lapua brass vs Federal brass. [/QUOTE]
