Agree, as long as those dents don't have holes down in those craters. They look like a center punch got'em. The round on the left needs to be resized, 'definitely got a belled mouth.

Lyman makes an "M" die that is for the expressed purpose of slightly expanding the mouth of a rifle case to accomodate loading lead bullets. If you are attempting to bell the mouth of the cases for some reason, you may want to see about one of those.
