A friend gave me a bunch of once shot Aguila 9mm brass. What do you all think about this for reloading? It's the only brass that I've seen having an indentation on it.

I wouldn't hesitate to run it through my resizing/decapping die. As long as it makes it through that step, go ahead and load 'em up and shoot 'em!

My general rule is that whenever I'm trying something NEW to me, I will only load about 10 or 20 rounds. That's enough for me to figure out if it works or not before I commit lots of time, energy and components.

Thats a channelure and nothing negative to that. Inspect every case for cracks, buldges or signs of high pressure. When in doubt, throw it out.
