Thanks that helps a lot. How bad is a full separation?

Not too bad, so long as you have a stuck case remover on hand. I have one for the M-60 machine gun (I took a couple when I was in the army), and it works well.

See attached pic of over-worked brass. After about 5-6 reloadings, I start to see cracks forming, and throw them in the trash. These got by me, and came apart.
