Far out WTF ?
Take/send it back if it’s new,that’s piss poor although full length size would sort it out.
Starline?
what brand got a pic of primer pocket
Not untypical for bulk brass. Neck size it and good to go...
I’d say that’s been through 10 freight company’s throwing the bag around before it hit the shelf, can’t blame the manufacturer for a dent in the case mouth
I’m presuming you know to FL resize new brass anyway so that you get the neck tension/Concentricity that your own dies put on it
winchester brass ???
That's disgraceful !!!

Gunworks Canterbury for the win as usual my local had no norma and none availble due to abit of covid and america buying up big pre election 2 bags on route from gunworks.
That's not right even for Win brass. Send it back for sure

It gets packed and freighted and unpacked and repacked and freighted again and unpacked and split up and freighted somewhere else and round and round it goes before eventually it ends up with you and me. The state of the plastic bags wasn’t exactly encouraging. Lapua of course comes in nice blue boxes.
I found with some careful prep even the worst of the damaged cases ended up recoverable.
Trying not to work to hard mate. Defo come downQuote:
