[QUOTE="RETOKSQUID, post: 3734543, member: 8681"] Same with the 44 special and magnums here. Had a run of cases that had about ten or so reloads on them, checked them over really good before recharging them. When I went to pack up for the range a few days later found out that two boxes of ammo had started to crack in different places on the cases. Some in the center, some at the mouth. Is my guess that after that many loadings the brass had started to become brittle from a combination of working and fireing, as the brass still didn't show signs of thinning. Haven't had that problem since I started annealing the cases on the third reload. [/QUOTE]
