Anyone ever blow these type of boo-boo’s out?

[wildchild]

Thinking some H110 and cram top with wax.
Anyone fix this before? 1 round missing is really gunna mess with my OCD! Ha!

 

[coldboreshot]

Depends...
Do you prefer to be the bug or the windshield?

 

[jimmymac]

Trash can.

 

[NZ_Fclass]

It'll buff out OK

 

[NZ_Fclass]

You will certainly need to anneal it first

 

[Ranger188]

Ask yourself, can you trust it as a fowler, sighter or put in the rotation in a match?
I’d never trust it. It’s one piece, throw it away and be done with it.
Your OCD will wonder, was it the brass or me more often than I have 99 pieces.

 

[jwv2001]

Problem is, if you fix the case, then you have 99 primers left in the box.

 

[Kracken McGraw]

How did you do that?

Sizing 22 GT to 20 GT. Musta been a soft one

Brad,

Chit ya....10% of a full case of Bullseye or Red Dot and a wax bullet.

Mark case and use for fouler.

Scrap it, and stay safe.

 

[Fuj]

Definitely too soft, and too much material pushed at one time. Trash it.

 

[DHD]

99 cases in a 100 round box is a PITA for sure.

That case now has what I believe to be a very weak spot by being bent. It's lost. Toss it.

I like Imperial Sizing Wax for this kind of work - but I size fired cases with normal case lube. I don't like the wax for regular sizing and I can't articulate why other than I get better headspace consistency with case lube.

Did you start with new brass? I wouldn't re-anneal it if it was annealed by the maker. Would make it too soft as you suspected.

Other point is to use an intermediate bushing and neck down in 2 steps if you are getting a lot of fallout.

As for the prodigal case: I have a 1 gallon plastic ice cream bucket under my bench nearly full of similar rejects to take for recycling some time.

Can't help with the OCD - seems to be a pre-requisite for hanging out here. You are in good company.

The other 99 worked perfect
I just started too small on the bushing.

I've fixed cases like this before with zero problems, drop about 4 grains of powder your using jam a bullet pretty good into the lands and walla fireformed case.
