Dented ammo, what is the danger and when?

[daskraut]

I just got some third world .30-06 and some of it has lightly dented cases. I rejected any that were dented near the bullet, but am going to shoot the rest as long as the dent is about .015 or less. Any thoughts?.

Drop each round into a chamber gauge.
As long as the dents are not causing raised points, I would not worry about it.

I brought the 30-06 dies to my place if you want to bring all that brass over that you have saved up...

I also have a 30-06 chamber gauge here.
Want me to bring it to work tomorrow?

If it chambers, fire it. It will just fire form itself back out.
