    I do Jim but hawkeye them very closely like yourself, the neck splits I have had over the last 5-6 years I could count on one hand I only bin a case if I suspect by visual and the inside wire scrape that incipient head separation is imminent and as said I anneal them as I have a system going for that lot when to do it. I have probably 450 ~ 480 Rem cases that I have in the system with about 400 rounds loaded at any given time any cases I bin I crush the body in my vice then belt the rim with a 4lb gimpy hammer to render them completely useless and in the bin they go.

    Usually just old brass I don't care about in the first place. Perhaps old Berdan cases...
