Remarkable! You find a split neck after shooting on one case and a dent in a Remington case and think the manufacturer's have QC problems. hate to be the one to tell you this but every manufacturer of any product let's a bad item get out now and them. as for ammo I couldn't tell you, been a lot of years since I've bought factory ammo but I do use factory once fired cases when I find them and most work very well!
