When someone posts on a reloading forum unsafe practices that novices can read without understanding or experience it becomes a responsibility to correct and/or clarify for safety's sake.

To state as fact that the case just holds the stuff up against the primer; to state that reloading cracked or split cases is somehow safe is utterly irresponsible.

I have been a fool; I will be one again, but unsafe reloading practices will not go uncorrected.

The fact that you came here for conformation of my 'snake oil' shows you didn't bother to check out the information published in numerous manuals, two of which I specifically mentioned, even page number.

Anyone wishing more information can check the 1911 Forum, Reloading Section, thread titled "Sorting Cases".
