Ugh $83 more I will have to spend for 500 starline brass.
That will be money well spent. However, the report of bad Starline brass is disconcerting. I hope it was only a single bad run, normally their brass is top notch.

Now, I have to disagree with the assessment of the Amerc brass - in this case only, I hasten to add. Normally, I would be right in there saying to toss the stuff in the nearest trash can. However, Triton is, or rather, was a reputable company with a good product and a conscientious business owner. I'm thinking that they would have ordered brass from American Ammunition with specific quality criteria. I would inspect the brass for good and uniform flash holes, well centered primer cavities, consistent web thickness, etc. If it passes those tests, I would use it to reload.

Also, I've never found S&B to use bad brass.
