    I don’t recommend federal brass in rem mags anymore as a result
    Nah its hornady. I am tempted to bin the lot - will see how it comes up on next cleaning/sizing/trim.

    Experienced a similar problem with about a dozen Hornady cases, out of a box of 50. All of my other Remington and Norma cases, all treated the exact same way, are fine
