[QUOTE="ASP785, post: 2609978, member: 12170"] If you are reloading within 'normal' pressure ranges, ie following most published load data, then 10 or more loads is pretty normal. However during load development for my 260 I went well past published data in attempts to find the most accurate load. I went into what I would consider nuclear territory. Although the brass didn't show any strong visual indicators of a problem, the 15 or so cartridges I loaded to that level all had to be pulled from service. When I was reloading these I noticed zero resistance when seating the primer. I marked all these with a magic marker to pull them and make sure they were not reloaded again. One of the primers actually fell out into my action when I was chambering it. All of the other 14 cases were fired without a problem. [/QUOTE]
