Skosh, keep it all. I load single stage on a Lee Classic Turret press and I prefer to hand prime. Like some of the others, I sort, then tumble, THEN look over the brass for splits etc.... after its clean. It's just easier that way for me. I also don't pay too much attention to headstamps. I used to, but I reload for practice and plinking, not for competition, so the need just isn't really there (again, its just my opinion). Brass that's not in your caliber? Throw it all in a bucket. It's brass. Its worth something on the scrap market. I must have 4 -5 thousand .45 acp brass right now, several thousands of 9 mm, and another few thousands of .40 cal. And I don't load 40 or 9mm. I've got the dies, its just cheaper to by 9mm than to reload it (TODAY... who knows about the WTSHTF day) Don't go bad.... got the room, a few 5 gallon buckets from Home Depot and I'm good to go.
Depriming? Not on a progressive. If you choose to do it on a single stage, be sure you put your "ears" on, and for God's sake... keep your hands clear!!! In fact, just do what the others said. Take it outside and shoot the primer, or throw it in a bucket and dispose of at the range. Have a great morning!!! Da ![]()
