I am new to this Semi auto pistol scene and have been saving the casings for reloading later. MOst of my guns have been revolvers
I was noticing today on my .40 S&W casings that there appears to be a slight indentation (Like something struck it or gripped it). It is about 4mm below the top of the casing and the width is about 2mm - thin line not deep ( Like something crimped it). It is not easy to detect it by running a wire down the inside. I looked at the last 200 rounds and it looks pretty consistent.
My definition of top is the location where the bullets sits.
The gun is Springfield XD 40 SC
I checked some ammo off my .380 pistol and see something similar - not as pronounced
Is this normal?
IS it still good for reloading / or will the reloading process address this?
Thank for any inputs
