[QUOTE="idaho elk hunter, post: 944122, member: 68226"] This has been a problem for sometime now. The application of nickel on brass is a plating process. The brass and nickel expand at different rates through pressure and temperature. If the plating process impregnates into the brass deeper than normal the nickel will actually start the pull the brass apart upon expansion. If it does not impregnate enough the nickel will flake off during the resizing process. ESPECIALLY in the neck area. Nickel plated brass is like a Cubic Zirconia ring. Nice looking until you find out it is worthless!:cool: [/QUOTE]
