my dad loaded some ammo years ago. he took great pride in his reloading practices, but he and I differed on reloads.

I loaded for practice and usually target or equal to factory specs.

He loaded for max specs and I always told him that he was stressing his firearms needlessly, but that was him.

He passed in 2005 and I was going through his stuff recently and I came across some loaded ammo. it has the reloading specs but its strong ammo.

I plan in the very near future to sell some stuff, but I would not want to push this ammo loaded.

If I were to pull the bullets, are the outer dimensions of the bullets different now?

are the bullets junk or not reloadable?

and trash the powder and just sell the primed brass?

its 10mm with jacketed bullets. Sorry, its not for sale at this time.

thanks in advance

I think the easiest thing to do would be to sell your Dad's reloaded ammo, making sure the buyer is aware of the load. I would not bother doing a disassembly.
 
I think the bullets would be fine. I've pulled some before and used them in different loads with no trouble.

Too bad it's not for sale yet.
