Inspect every round you load

just toss it.

Hard to believe a round that dirty ever got by the factory. The dent is most certainly a hydraulic compression from too much lubricant on the case at the time of sizing. Something smells wrong on this round coming from a factory using new components.

Amen to looking over cartridges your stuffing in the mag. I found this one a couple weeks ago. Just barely noticed something off at first.

Call me crazy but if that chambered without issue I would shoot it. 55,000 psi will take that dent right out of that case.

The dent won't hurt much, but the corrosion spots are hard on the chamber finish, particularly for an autoloader.

Not any harder than running steel cases and you have to shoot allot of either to wear a barrel or chamber out. If you shoot enough to wear a barrel out the price of the barrel is a minor percentage of the cost of the ammo even cheap crappy ammo.
