I'm relatively new to reloading so I don't have a ton of brass. I use mostly 9mm, .40 S&W and .45 ACP. I recognize the pressures involved in 9mm and .40 cartridges so I tend to be very careful.
On the other hand my club leaves out reloading buckets for used brass. Occasionally I'll pick up some of this and check it out. I think I can do a decent job detecting if it's commercial cases (not reloaded) by looking at the extractor marks on the rim, etc. I can clearly see multiple extractor marks on my reloads.
I'm not loading these hot at all- mostly target, practice.
Do you guys do this? Any advice? Thanks!
PS> I tried a search as I know this must have been covered but I couldn't do a search that didn't end up with hundreds of unrelated threads.
