I'm an old scrounger. If I see and can pick up empties, I do it. It doesn't make one bit of difference to me.
There was a time, long ago, when I was kind of particular. I'd even sort my brass by headstamp. These days, I'm lucky to find the 9mm and 380 junk and separate it out.
Yes, I liked the article. I also like to see an article about some rifle ammo. Say, .30-06 and 7mm Mag. With that, even the primers can make a difference. Mag vs std.

I actually find nickel cases MORE diff to size, the nickel seems to create a bit more friction.
I have loaded 45 brass until the headstamp can't be read, maybe 20x?? They seem to last almost forever. At some point they will split, just takes along time.
