    Re loading Rio Mini Magnum #3 hulls.

    I have a goodly quantity of the Rio Mini Magnum hull's and noted that the outer cardboard pack bears the warning.

    " Not suitable for reloading"


    Fair enough, but is that a fact of life and death or an example of commercial marketing and bean counter arse covering?

    For example, had i recovered the hull from the range after it had been fired and discarded by another, I would have no reason to question about reloading, only decide on appearance.

    I append an image of a once fired hull and despite having scrutinised it with an intense scrute :>) can find no cause for the warning . The only change is an ejector mark which is insignificant on the brass.

    Opinions please on reloading the hulls. Thank You.
