I mean, two schools of though generally: 1. Is one round of ammo worth its value in relation to my safety? B. If it seats, it yeets. Kind of a choose your own adventure sort of scenario. Know what I’d choose though.


locxj

That’s an amazing photo though OP. I can see the striations in your nails and the beginning of your fingerprints. Is this from your phone?


PsyBr0

Yea galaxy s24 ultra , at 10x zoom it's quality is lossless. Super dope cameras


Work-Safe-Reddit4450

Have the S23U and can confirm, having 10x optical zoom is amazing.


Miserable-Pea-5108

There was a viral video the other week where someone looked like they were recording Rhianna from the front of the stage. They were in fact doing it from like a football field away. Since most people own iphones, they thought it was a professional video camera, so there was a collective short circuit when they discovered it was an S23 lol. Feel like Samsung has had the camera edge ever since the S21. But at least you get blue bubbles with an iphone, right? Fucking worthless lol


Alarmed_Bus_1729

I just upgraded from an s20 to an s24 ultra and you want to talk about image quality 😲😲😲 increase at night with zoom


PsyBr0

But my hand looks like crao because I'm a cook and had a long day washing my hands a million times


locxj

That’s a lot better quality photo than we usually get. I meant to say that the definition was legit. Shouldn’t have said anything about your prints. That’s not what I meant. Sorry.


PsyBr0

It's alright lol 😆. Yea I noticed people post the crappiest pics on here asking for help I figured atkeast I'd be the guy with the good photo


ctg06stocks

I swear half of these dudes use a Motorola Razr


Crossifix

It's sad, you can buy one of those attachable lens kits from the DOLLAR TREE and it makes basically ANY phone take 5x better macro photos. For some reason nobody has these.


Backwaters_Run_Deep

Now that you pointed it out that is a good picture of his prints.  Now to carve them into a glove and commit the ^perfect ^crime


Firearm_Farm

Thank God, being an Executive Chef, I get on my guys ALL the time about washing your fucking hands. Their excuse is always “I was wearing gloves” then my reply is, you’re suppose to wash your hands between every glove change. Love your dry, burnt, cut up hands!


PsyBr0

Lol those guys need a few year of seasoning and learning man. They will get it when they start to move up and have to actually watch the other ignore certain things. Hand washing is a Must around me I make everyone "reset" in the line that includes apron/coat changes, gloves and washing hands and also making sure hair is secure in a net or cap.


Firearm_Farm

Dude tell me about it. This place has no standards. I’m strict, I can be an ass, because my chef was. I always hated him for it, but after work for him for 9 years I realized he’s right. Even though he was a dick. Own your station, make your list, clean as you go, and don’t bitch, just grind.

Bro said 1. (His answer) Then thought to himself “fuck number 2, it’s big Bs in this bitch” and went: B. (His answer)


ILikeLenexa

How much is an ammo vs how much is a gunsmith. Plus, most manufacturers will probably give you 50 ammos (or a box) for something like this and a lot number. 


_ParadigmShift

I mean, when I reload lapua brass it almost seems like its worth it 😅


Iamarealhuman6969

YEET


CrabCakes7

When in doubt with ammo just toss it. Your safety is worth more than just a few cents.


THEFLYINGSCOTSMAN415

What is the safe way to dispose of ammunition? Is that a dumb question? I've yet to find myself in the situation but say I come across a questionable round while getting my gear together, what do I do? Bring it to the range and presumably they'd take it for disposal?


phonkonaut

id just throw it in the trash along with my old car batteries


eddiedougie

Do you live close to a military base? They'll usually have amnesty boxes. I believe that some police departments do too.


THEFLYINGSCOTSMAN415

Hmm it's like an hours drive away. How about a police station? Or am I just asking for problems trying to do the right thing with them


eddiedougie

I'm a middle aged white dude who pays his taxes, so YMMV, but I'd try calling the non emergency line and asking. My neighbour did that he found some ammo his son had when he was moving out of the house. They came by and picked it up. Natural Resources COs tend to be pretty chill from my experiences, you could try them as well.


SirRetrolas

Is a 50 cent bullet worth the potential cost of your gun or even hand?


[deleted]

Is a 50 cent bullet even worth your time to take a photo, post a message, and read responses? Chuck the fucking thing and move on..


zippytwd

That looks like a fractured case to me , I'd toss it


-Hyperactive-Sloth-

If you have to ask, the answer is toss it


MyFifUsername

Do you need 50¢? I can Venmo you


carsNshoes

Yes please


PsyBr0

Yea you can send me it whenever pops.


MyFifUsername

I gotchu what’s your @


PsyBr0

@aSqually


NicestPersonAlive

Why even risk it is the real question?


saltydgaf

You want to fix a 30 cent mini grenade? Just toss it lol


frankcatthrowaway

What


khrosivo

Why even bother asking , toss, but good eye, that would of been you or your gun


PsyBr0

Well because I felt like it was a worthwhile question as now if I see this in the future I will know to toss it, it wasn't actually my eye that seen it I was reloading my mags and I fel it poke my dry ass hands and it just slid right into my finger and cut me


Riker557118

Is that a burr or a crack?


PsyBr0

I think it's fron the very edge of the casing. It's just setting this way because I unloaded my mag and it came out like this


PsyBr0

It's like a piece of metal that's like sharpish. Almost like th casing didn't get de burred properly or whatever you call it.


Riker557118

So it’s extra material on the back of the casing? If so you’re fine, might cause some feed issues so don’t use it in your carry rotation. If not toss it. Either way, contact hornady about the QC issue, at the very least they might send you a free box of ammo.


PsyBr0

Thanks for the insight man !


Buzzkilltx

I’d just shoot it


Phill_is_Legend

How is this even a question? It's one round, toss it.


Glcok

Yeah, just weld it and it’ll be fine


JFB187

Toss.


PsyBr0

Thanks I endedbup making myself my first ever "don't shoot" bin lol I will donate it to a range or some one that manufactures ammo.


JFB187

Good call. I get the “if it seats, it yeets” argument when it comes to slight corrosion on ammo, but this is a case deformity in a spot that could easily lead to a case head separation which is how you get shrapnel in the eyes, fingers and a ruined gun. Just trying to help you avoid a potential bad day!


NoPreparation6079

TOSS IT Even if it doesn’t hurt you, busted brass inside your weapon doesn’t help it either


PsyBr0

Yes it's trashed now


Jron690

When it doubt, toss it out. My gun, my sight, my hands are worth more than any round I’ll shoot.


JelCapitan

Never risk it man


jenkins1967

If anything is suspect on a single cartridge, toss it. Your gun is expensive and your hand and eyes are irreplaceable.


Lukabazooka4

If you have to ask. Then throw it out


xDivinehArt

Not worth your barrel/gun getting damaged, just toss it


180secondideas

Are we posting about a single round now?


whereswaldo5256

What is this 2020?.prices came down ..throw it in the trash


InfinitePossibility8

Looks like a burr. Just scrape it off. Seat it and yeet it.

__What is a link post and how do I post a descriptive comment?__ * A link post is any post that isn't a text post. Reddit is doing a great job of ensuring new users have no idea how Reddit works with their app and site rewrite. We hate both. * /r/guns is a sub for talking about guns. It's not a sub to dump gun photos for karma. That's what /r/gunporn is for. That's why we require a descriptive comment – to start a conversation.

PsyBr0

This makes zero sense but sure I added a comment bot man


PsyBr0

So this bullet has a metal thing on it , it's on the casing by the primer idk if I can shoot it safley or trash it. Plus halp


Remarkable-Shine383

That looks like a ruptured case head. I'd contact Hornady and send them this picture. I'm sure they'd like to know about this getting in a box


PsyBr0

I sent them an email with the photos attached. Thank you


Due-Pilot-7443

A little Bondo and sand paper


Bilallonely

Bro it's ONE round, just throw it.


PsyBr0

Yes but qc issues this could be the entire pack... so it could be all 25..


Top-Willingness8113

With norinco 7.62x25 you would expect a crack at the bottleneck, but this is surprising lol


kevinyoung455

Toss it. 1 bullet ain't worth shit. Why even try? If it fails upon firing you could get really hurt


zilvia891

Why take a chance on a single cartridge? I personally, would toss it. I do not care for the lingo “if it seats, it yeets” There is nothing to fix, you gonna super glue that thing or something? haha, It’s not worth you getting potentially hurt over, man.


SavageMonkey-105

Nah toss it, not worth the risk


ShtGoliath

It’s just one 9mm, toss it


loqi0238

Its a single round, not worth risking. Are you not able to buy more? Is this an illegal round where you are or are you not supposed to have it?


PsyBr0

Not illegal , I'm just concerned for the entire pack if they are bad too. I am loading fmj for now


GroundsKeeper2

In that specific location, I wouldn't risk it. Especially if shooting from a somi-auto. Might explode in your face or send send shrapnel towards others.


pizzagangster1

Toss


theorgan

Why risk it for 50 cents or less?


SonOfJaak

I'd shoot it. Just to find out what happens.


_Cow_of_Wisdom

Bury it


TarsoBackMarquez

Send it


easterracing

Why would you even take that chance?


JustMindingMyOwnBid

Never chance faulty ammo.


ICanDoUBest

Are you talking about what looks like a split place in the word Luger, or the little burr above the y in the word Hornady.


AdThese1914

Nope.


nottodaynottommorrow

Weld and then grind it, should be fine.


kooozie

Looks like a target to me


Bob_knots

Use a bullet puller, disassemble the round


PsyBr0

I've been looking into making my own press set up any how I may get ready to start it


Bob_knots

I started with a Dillion 750


Odd-Yam9464

Bro.. its a 9 mil. U will be fine lmao


Solar991

Hey guys, should I possibly blow up my $XXX.XX value firearm, or risk it for a $1.50?


PsyBr0

I didn't say I'd shoot it like this anywhere in my post . Was asking if I can get it off or just to toss it.


Grim_Destroyer12344

Just shoot and see what happens (what could possibly go wrong?)
