I know you are supposed to be able to shoot the 7.62x25 with split necks, but can you shoot 8mm with split neck without trouble?

I have had them split after firing, but I would shy away from the ones that are split from the get go. The bullet is liable to be loose, and can get shoved back during chambering. This could lead to pressure issues.

Personally, i don't shoot rounds with obvious (read visible) defects. Just my .02

I would use it for components, I would not shoot it as is.
