Hey guys I got a recall email today from Hornady regarding some 500s&w ammo. Figure I better share just in case anybody would like to possibly save their fingers from a cartridge that already has a lot of pressure exploding because of even more pressure. (I have never had to recall any of my reloads  ;))
