| I am getting into reloading and noticed that some of my brass is dented. some have barely noticeable dents and some have noticeable but not that bad looking. Can i reload these? (there on the side of the .223 shell) |
| Its from your shell deflector. Most of the time this is no big deal and 95% of it will press out when resized. I would trash if cracked. My suggestion is to purchase a brass catcher or shell deflector. I have one of these . Lined the inside with soft velco and no more dents. The added benefit is that your brass drops right next to you. |

The link I added is what I use. I have a scoped 20" flattop. At least in my application it works great and fits between my scope rings.....and no dents. The velco was installed on the inside of the deflector. Quoted:
If you have a scoped AR you may not be able to add a brass deflector. The Velcro works on the OEM AR upper shell deflector but it only keeps your brass from being dented. Vince |
