[QUOTE="Teri Anne, post: 2589024, member: 118816"] I have run into this from time to time too and it always has to do with the crimp. I can't tell from the picture whether there is a canellure on the bullet but looking at the cases side by side it appears that they are the same length to the top of the case meaning the damaged one would have been too long for the setting of the crimp. Always check the length on all brass, no matter if it is used or new. There is a lot of variation even with new factory brass. I would not try to fire this case or any one like it. Put it up on display on your loading bench as a reminder not to do this again. :oops: [/QUOTE]
