Counting times fired

I've been reloading now for a couple of months (I think I'm on my third 1000 primers), and have been tracking number of reloads by marks on the head of each cartridge, but wonder if it's worth the trouble.

I only seem to collect about half the brass I shoot at the range. When I get it home, I sort it by my head marks, clean each batch separately (removing the old mark), mark them with the new count, and mix the batches together for reloading.

When I only recover a handful that were fired 3 times, for example, I throw them in a ziploc bag, hoping to eventually accumulate enough to be worth cleaning.

Is it worth this trouble if I inspect the cases? I promise not to sue anybody if I take your advise and hurt myself.

Thanks
