Range scavenged cases with imperfections

[bblhd672]

My neighbor brought me a few bags of cases he picked up at his range. As I seperated the .308 and 7.62 cases I found quite a few that had necks minor defects, most likely dents from ejection and then striking rocks and necks that weren't round that I suspect were stepped on.

Should these cases be tossed or are they still usable?

Use em unless they're just crushed. If you're really worried about dents then throw a light load in there to fire form them and go from there. Anything out of round in the neck will come out when you resize and body dents will as well to some extent.
