Reload American Eagle .357 mag brass?

Anybody reload American Eagle .357 mag brass?

It has a crimp line about 1/3 from top, haven't seen this on any other brass, wondring if this brass is worth using and if the primers are crimped like some other American Eagle brass.

I have and I find no issue with it. The primers are not crimped. The only thing I notice is that when running them through the sizing die you will find a little more resistance when you hit the grove but it doesn't affect anything. IMO.

HI. I have used 38 special with the dent ring to stop bullet set back on manufactured ammo. The dents flatten out after a few fireings,watch for black marks that may be burn through sign or just dirt. These cases may crack sooner than others. I just shoot em and inspect carefuly.

I did reload a lot of them ( for my Trapper ) and there is no issues doing so, the crimp line is usually almost gone after you fire the round... JP.
