these are 5.56 NATO (Was told they are NATO but brass doesnt have NATO stamp) Federal XM193 rounds from Natchez Shooters Supply Online.

Shooting out of a 1:7 16" BCM M4 Carbine..

I was told they 4 on the left would just pop out from the pressure and be fine.. I believe they might blow out the sides honestly..

The last one looks like a nice pressure scratch from a corner or something..goes all the way down the case wall.. but only real dent is on top as seen.. the rest is just a simple scratch..

What do you guys think is going to happen??

I plan on shooting these anyways.. Unless I get some heavy warnings not to.
 
Re: Would you?

What they said.

None of those are nearly as traumatic as what happens to the shoulder of virgin brass the first time you fire it.

Re: Would you?

Alright thanks a ton guys.

Will be putting these through my M4 and sending them down range.
 
Re: Would you?

Personally I wouldn;t fire that one with the crease in the brass 2nd from left. Its just me, but one round tossed out of a thousand to be sure you don't have a kaboom would be prudent.

dented brass = fine
creased brass = no go in my book
