[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Dented Cases

Posted: 2/14/2009 10:54:32 AM EDT

Does the Sig 556 dent cases?

If yes, is the case dented so badly that you cannot reload it?

Does anyone who shoots the 556 reload the cases?

Dents not a problem .Full length size and load.

Ditto to that, only problem is finding all the far flung empty cases!

mine pile up really nicely... just make sure you don't fling them into a post at your local range, then findin them gets challenging.

I was told by a Sig 556 owner that the necks are dented and he can use only a small percentage of cases to reload.

Anyone have similar problems?

Mine does not dent the cases. I usually shoot medium powered reloads and they eject further than an AR15 but they are not bent up.

Sounds like someone who doesn't know what they are doing.

I asked about this a little while ago in the reloading forum. You can see some pics of what my rifle does to the cases.
