Hey guys, simple question here.
I backed out some Winchester LRP from .45-70 brass. Only about 10 or so. I have never done that before, but I went slow and applied steady pressure and they popped right out. 9 went into the primer catcher, one hit the floor. The reason I did this is I need to trim the brass and have found it is easier to trim brass when the primer pockets are empty as my LYMAN seems to center the brass using the primer pockets. They have never been trimmed and they are different headstamp and I want to make them uniform.
Should I attempt to reuse the backed out primers or trash them?
