When do you pitch your brass?
After so many reloads?
When a batch shows signs of distress?
Myself, I've gone five reloads on 30.06 and more on .38/.357 target loaded. In 4500 + reloads (38 family, 9, 30.06) I've only seen one or two split cases, a few split mouths. Most of mine (cept the 9mm) is or was pretty much seperated by lot. I've quit 38/357 but still have a lot.
Funny how a .357 looks so BIG until you load a .45 Colt!
