Are these safe to fire? It is brand new ammo. Thanks!

It sounds like the ammo you have bought may be ... Factory Seconds ... or Rejects .
If so you realy shouldn't shoot them ... they were inspected and found not to comply with factory specifications . Break them down for reloading components .
It may cost more but good ammo pays for itself in the long run .
