A word of warning on those old cases. If they've been previously fired, they may have had mercuric primers in them. If so, the primer residue causes a chemical change in the brass that supposedly makes it brittle and prone to rupture. You might want to research this a bit to find out how to test the cases before using them. BP or smokeless, they might still let go!
