I'm pretty sure it only has to happen once to get the warning.

I was reading a book (I think the ABC's of Reloading) and it was talking about a kid working in an ammunition making factory. Short on details a bit but I believe for some reason new primers were getting placed in a bucket and then this kid would take them to the next step. I guess he was skipping down the road as the primmers bounced around and then boom. Could have swore it said something like they only found one foot. Everything else was toast.

Hornaday makes a rubber nosed spitzer for 30-30 so there has to be a need for this style of bullet.
