When I started reloading a little over a year ago I picked up several hundred Herters 38 spl rounds to start saving the brass. After lots of stumbles, smashed primers and aggravation I learned from this list that these brands (Cabela's Herter boxes say they're loaded by S&B) tend to have tight primer pockets. And using a wheel gun, I never seem to lose any. So I've gradually bought others to replace the Herter's.
Are these cases fixable? Would something like a Lyman (small) primer pocket reamer work ? Is it possible to make he primer pocket too big with this type of tool ? Or should I just toss them ?
TIA for any suggestions and comments.
