I have some rounds that are like this, they all pass the "plunk" test in my BBLs(5 different guns). If they plunk shoot them and don't worry about it.
Back in the old days, it was not a matter of the loaded cartridges not passing the "plunk" test...it was a matter of the the rims having grown too large to fit into the shell holder (single stage presses), and therefore could no longer be reloaded. I do not know if progressive presses that take shell plates are also so affected or not. While I still shoot .45 ACP and use a Dillon 550b, I do not do so as much .45 ACP as in the old days so I have not run into that problem as of late.
