Exclamation Bad Brass

I got a 270WSM MTM 50rd blue hinged plastic ammo box. I opened
the Winchester Bag of 270WSM to store them my new MTM box.

I had read rumors that Winchester 270WSM brass had "Out of
Round" primer flash holes.

Wow! while inspecting mine over, sure enough about 30 have
oblong flash holes. Two had "V" dented shoulders.

Length of the Cartridges miked between 2.090 to 2.099, (2.100
is text book length).

I anguished over this for awhile. I'm going to prepare 25 cartridges,
and reload 3 to try. Rifle is not set up with Scope yet anyways.

I want this Winchester Brass, because of reading that it holds
up better than high priced brands.

I will be actually writing Winchester a letter to tell them my
Excitement to shoot my new Rifle and the Disappointment in
the new Win 270WSM brass cartridges.

Thank you for reading my post.

If you look close at the bottom ones those are some of the
oblong flash holes.
