    Geez guys. I don't have any specific time frame to go by. If I don't like the looks of the brass, it's gone..... And I have some handgun brass that's mighty old...

    I have made a habit of miking the cases just above the base area. a decrease in size of more than a few thousands before resizing is a sign of impending case separation. other than that any obvious flaws send them to the scrap can. I mostly neck size only and neck annealing keeps them healthy for as many as 10 loading cycles. JMHO
