winchester supreme silver cases

Yes. But, you probably/usually won't get as many loadings from the nickel plated cases as they are a little more brittle than regular brass. Some guys use 'em 'till their used up; others don't use them at all. I have not used them. Most likely 'cause I didn't have any. Here, I'm referring to rifle cases.

Now, when it comes to straight wall pistol cases, such as .38 spl I have reloaded those many, many, times; but, I was shooting a really light target load.
 
I never reloaded them, and probably never will. I wouldn't buy them bulk, just for reloading purpose's. If ya got them, what the hay. I've read several threads where guy's would notice cracked neck's on the first reload. Heck, I've even heard of that happening new out of the box.
 
I have reloaded them with no troubles. I also load Remington Nickel Plate / bulk, heres a tip on reloading new NP brass, I use a carbide burr bit (cone) and knock off the build up plating at the case mouth. I didn`t do this at first and after sizing a dozen or so I noticed scratches on the sides of the case.I took the die apart and cleaned it and found quite a bit of that plating in there.
 
I have a few dozen in my mix of 12k cases. I have not had any issues with them reloading. I think they may have 6-8 reloads on them also and are still good.
