But, most importantly, I inspect all the pieces of brass before I load so I would notice a missing flash hole. I bought a bag of Lapua .308 brass and one had a flash hole drilled off to the side of the primer pocket. If I'd run the pin down on that round I would have broke it. So, your best bet is do what the books tell you to do... inspect the brass!</p></blockquote><p></p>
