Went out to the range the other night to sight in my Savage Axis 22-250 since we didn't have any wind. I had a fresh box of Factory Winchester Varmint & Predator 45 grain jacketed hollow point ammunition. Opened the box and had shot my first 5 rounds, I went to reload the magazine, and the first cartridge I grabbed caught my eye, so I looked closely at it, and noticed major damage to the brass on the neck. I'm just glad that I noticed it. I don't know what would or could have happened if I were to fire this round? It could have blown up in my face, or even worse! I have already sent an email to Winchester with several pictures of the damaged round. I'm just waiting to hear back from them now!
Have any of you guys experienced a problem like this before?
Any experts or people with experience that can tell me what could or would have happened if I didn't notice this and would have fired the round?
Thanks guys!
