Quick question
Hi everyone! I was just inspecting my daily carry ammo and found a problem that I haven't seen nor have I read about, so I figured someone here would know. One of my 115 grain +p+ Speer gold dots was loose in its case and could be pulled out by hand. I believe the round had been chambered before due to marks on the bullet and casing. Anyone seen or heard of this before?

Re: Quick question
If a round is chambered and rechambered over and over it can become loose or become setback

Re: Quick question
Setback was what I was primarily looking for. I just found 2 more in one of my other magazines. They were a little loose but wiggled tight again. Should they be discarded?

Re: Quick question
If you have to ask you already know the answer. never shoot any questionable ammo. either pull the bullets and reload or discard.

Re: Quick question
Bullet setback is the cheap way to convert your standard ammo to +p++++

Re: Quick question
Please do not use these. Are they bought or reloads, I rarely see this on factory ammo. Just wondering? If are they are reloads, are you crimping them?
