Quoted:
M1A brass gets reloaded four times maximum, then sell it for scrap.
Sir, +1 on that!
For the OP, I discovered the rule Mr. Borderpatrol cites the hard way. A case head seperation occurred during a match while I was shooting from the offhand position. The base of the case bounced off the upper edge of my shooting glasses and forehead and knocked my hat off. The front handguard flew from the rifle and the magazine follower popped from the magazine. I had to use a broken shell extractor to get the rest of the case out of the rifle chamber.
I was using LC brass on the fifth reload. I pulled the bullets from some other cartridges that were also on the fifth reload and found that about twenty-five percent had a noticeable ring on the inside of the case wall just above the web of the case. I adopted Mr. Borderpatrol's rule without knowledge nor input from anyone, I did not want a repeat of the experience.
FWIW, the bolt of an M1A begins to unlock before the bullet leaves the muzzle (standard twenty inch barrel length) subjecting the fired cartridge case to full chamber pressure while the rear of the case becomes unsupported by the fully locked bolt. In my humble opinion Lapua brass is way to expensive to abuse in this manner, regardless your choice I would meticulously check the interior of each cartridge case beginning with the third reload. Once you find the tell tale ring on the case interior I say scrap the whole batch.
I used 41.5 gr of IMR 4895 with a 168gr Sierra HPBT as a standard match load in my M1As for many years. It's a hot load, I do get some flattening of primers but also quite accurate. With commercial brass such as WW generally speaking each piece probably weighs a bit less than LC so I would start looking for indications of imminent case head seperation after the second reload.
