.22 hornet and Prvi Partizan brass incipient case head separation

I have 2 S&W revolvers converted to .224 Harvey K Chuks. I do not have a set of dies for reloading! The K Chuk is a fire formed brass from the 22 Hornet. To reload I tumble the brass, measure the case length, use any 22 cal deprimer/sizing die, reprime with hand priming tool, neck size only, and seat with a 22 cal seating die. I have had my original .224 Harvey K Chuk for 10+ years and have never had any case separate and a lot of my brass is the old Remington-Peters brand! A few years ago I bought a Ruger 22 Hornet and I reload for it the same way I do for the K Chuk described above. I do keep the brass for each revolver separate and the Ruger is the only rifle I have in 22 Hornet!
