Push come to shove might have to make it from 300 RUM, will take some work but can be done. Get a neck turner if he has to go that route.
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true Mainstream news might be fun to watch

Dang, not the news i was looking for. My brother has alot of brass but doesn't know how many times he has loaded them. What all does he need to look for to find problem brass?

I would start with crack/splits, loose primer pockets, and erosion of the body near case head. If he doesn't anneal doing so may help.
There is no fun in owning that round and not letting it run! but staying off max/near max loads will greatly increase brass life.

I actually have a box of .284 160 AB
I've been debating if I want to load them or not. If you need them, I'm happy to sell them instead

This caliber is really good, now Nolser is coming out with the 28 Nosler, seems pretty close to the 7mm RUM
I may have a lead on some brass, my BIL has a nice 700 in 7mmRUM. never shoots it since the safety split his thumb open the first time he shot it

Loading 90 g retumbo, im seeing 88 starting and 94 max so not exactly pushing the limits.. I would start with crack/splits, loose primer pockets, and erosion of the body near case head. If he doesn't anneal doing so may help.

your primer pockets should go before the case cracks on a RUM from what Ive seen.
