I 'inherited' a batch of nickel .38 Spl which had been loaded an unrecorded number of times before I got them. I used them for wadcutter loads in our pistol league. I lose a few to neck splits every time I cycle through the batch. I've loaded them maybe 4 or 5 times myself but, like I said, I don't know the history.
There is also some 'net chatter about the nickel galling or otherwise gumming up dies but it's never happened to me. FWIW.
