Rifle and pistol. Inspecting your brass is one of the stages of reloading. Never had a case separation, or split. If there is any doubt, the round gets thrown into the salvage bucket.Straight walled pistol brass almost never has any issues. I can't think of less than a dozen I've picked up that had a split case over the years. Rifle brass is a little different animal. Since the brass gets worked in the dies a lot, they have a shorter case life. I'm betting Lyman is saying that as a CYA measure, so somebody that has a brass issue can't come back and say it was their fault.</blockquote>
