Lot of good info above.
Boils down to this:
Fired in a fluted chambered weapon.
The flutes most likely weaken the brass.
Yes, they are a pain to load.
As for my view.
Many years ago a good friend had an H&K. He didn't load and gave me the few cases he picked up. Being the cheap tight-wad I am, I processed and loaded them.
I found that more than normal amounts of lube and making incremental sizing steps, re-lube in between, worked the best.
They must have worked OK, as I don't think I have any left and don't remember any problems.
Your choice, scrap them, load them or save them. I know what I did.
Load with care,
OSOK
