I agree but that does not work if you do handpriming before resizing.
A Walnut or corncob crumb might be harder to miss but a double stainless pin stuck in a flash hole is easy to spot.

Wow, breaking a decapping pin sure sucks. For me I try to buy just use only Boxer caps and just this alone. When I shoot at the range and collect my brass sometimes I scoop up other brass and some of those are Berdan and the shells look identical to the ones I shoot. Any how I do try to do a physical check on my shells for reloading and I do miss the odd Berdan cap when reloading and I've bent my decaping pin. Too bad there isn't a tool out there to extract any of those caps and that this tool doesn't exist commercially. I've seen on Youtube other ways to decap Berdan caps and some of these are creative on converting these back to Boxer on Youtube.
Why would i get misfires? You can't wet tumble with the spent primers in anways (it would never dry), so I dont know how you would do it otherwise.So you decap before you tumble and then size without the pin? How many misfires do you get?
