How to tell if tanished cases are safe to reload

I found it its the mk 4 .Australia: during World War II and Korean War. Indonesia–Malaysia confrontation (as L4A4).[28] Continued in limited service until about the time of the general introduction of the F88 Steyr (ca 1990).[citation needed] I have found lots of pictures but am having trouble uploading as It will not take jpeg images I will keep trying

Actually, further to what i said, I should add that if feeling for split necks with the chamfer deburr tools, you will only have a chance to feel the split if it has travelled all the way to the end of the neck...

Ive had a few where the split is before the end of the neck...only ever picked those faults up by vision...

GLASSES. Have not read the thread so not sure if it’s been mentioned. I’m fifty. If the case is clean and I’m wearring specs I can see absolutely everything It’s amazing

I've only had a couple but have also had similar splits and cracks in the shoulder or around it. And again that goes back to my liking for a good clean of the brass as it makes easier to see such defects.

You can clean up your necks with some fine steel wool. For range scrap, I am worried about stuff being inside the case. Once picked up a case and it had a 22lr spent case inside it.
