    peace of mind, you can make yourself a tool to check. Get a paper clip, straighten it out enough so it can reach the bottom of the case. Make a small 90 degree bend on the end of the straight section. Scrape the inside wall with your new tool. You're feeling for a dip in the wall instead of a smooth transition. If you can feel an obvious valley, toss the brass. If it's smooth, keep it
