Inventive idea for brass sorting - Page 2

I like the earlier reply about a mark on the case, as in a simple dot, point or slash being imprinted on the rim or base, but that'll never happen unless you have a custom gun made. Likely best reasonable solution is an accurate written log, as I use:
- MTM Handloaders Log: This is a large 3-ring binder that includes 5 types of log sheets and 4 sets of targets, in 9 divided sections. I just got this and will use it to make notations each time I reload. Over the course of time it will be nice having all of that info organized in one place.

Just take a small file and cut a small notch in the rim

My 1911 has a step in the breech face similar to this...

It leaves a mark on the head of the brass every time and I can clearly see how many times it has been fired through my gun.

I did some digging and now I need to post pictures. I have cases with notches but for a different reason.

I was going to post a picture when I discovered the picture was too large. And then I got the wife involved, she said she could reduce the size of the picture so I emailed it to her (and then) that did not work so I had her to use her camera (it's a smaller camera).

She emailed her pictures to me and I down loaded and then I attempted to post the picture. I did not get the notice the picture was too large; the next noticed I received claimed there was a token missing.

I can only guess tokens are difficult to come by
