    Federal .40 S&W NT brass question

    I received a bunch of once fired .40 S&W brass with assorted headstones.
    As I was sorting it out I came across several .40 S&W Federal NT brass.
    To me it looks like the flasholes are larger than the other brands of brass.
    I don't have any way to measure the flashholes as I'm away from my bench for a few more months.
    Any one have any experience with the NT brass?
    Is it safe to load.
    Any and all information is much appreciated.
    Thanks,

    It means Non Toxic (probably lead free priming).
