Once you reload you can do all sorts of good things.

Because my AR15 is a straight-pull bolt action only rifle, some 5.56 nato ammo causes fairly tight primary extraction, to get round this issue, I just pull the heads, dump some powder out and reload with the pulled heads. Mexican match style. Good plinking rounds for up to 3/400 yards.
