I've been CC'ing a lot lately and noticed my defensive ammo (JHP) chambered round gets a bit beat up after repeated loading/unloading of the same round, particularly around the rim area near the primer. On some occasions, I do not get an adequate feed when I go to chamber a round when I load my weapon prior to concealed carry. I usually remove these rounds once this happens and plan to use them at the range for target practice.
My question is, at what point or how many load/unload cycles do you folks go through prior to removing that round from your defensive carry ammo? I've noticed some rough areas around the rim area near the primer and believe this may be the cause of the infrequent load failures that I have experienced. Any thoughts/suggestions? Don't want to get caught short when/if the SHTF...
Thanks!
