Like Sport45 I have loaded nickel cases until the nickel wears off. But, no flaking.
At one time I was loading a lot of 45 Long Colt Nickel cases and they tended to split sooner than the Brass cases. Might have just been that batch.
It seems like I get a few more splits in 38 Special in nickel over brass. If its a small split I go ahead a load it and throw it away after I shoot it. The key is SMALL split.
