Just when I thought I won the lottery, was given 40 - 7.62x39 cases by a shooter next to me at the range, I find out they fail the magnet test.

Now what do I do, toss them or try to reload them?

I have no experience with bass coated steel cases. Will they damage my dies or just treat them the same as brass?

Help
