I would. Pull em (keep the heads and re-seat later), anneal and ditch old powder. I would fire off the primers too. I'd be pretty chuffed to be running antique brass as long as the neck wall thickness was all still good (above .012").
Just annealing shows me any differences that you might miss with the ball mic (unless you're literally checking EVERYTHING). Its like a WOF for the brass
