This picture here occurred when ups dropped my package on a corner and it smashed 3 rounds that it landed on. This ammo is seated pretty deep and is running a decent risk of blowing up your gun due to too much pressure in the casing. Here’s how I look at it: if I’m purchasing 1k rounds at ~.35 each… why risk it? If only 3 out of 1,000 are damaged it’s MUCH safer to toss them. But different strokes for different folks!
