It seems many reloaders know it's time to cycle in New Brass when their cases start splitting. I've been loading the same lot of 300 pcs of brass in 44 mag for 6-7 times, maybe more. I use the same brass to load mild 44 mag (9 gr unique, lswc) and my hotter load (18.7 gr 2400 jhp). I've never had a case split on me or head seperation. When a case splits or seperates while firing, is this safe? I'm assuming you lose quite a bit of pressure and it will sound "off", but is there any chance of ruining a pistol or getting hurt? All my Revo's are Ruger heavy frames.
