Nickel Plated Brass more dependable?

I’ve had similar, mixed results. I have some old .38 brass that has been loaded so many times the nickel is mostly worn off. I also had a batch of R-P .45 Colt brass that split probably 50% of the cases on the first resizing. It does seem to go through the dies easier when it’s in good shape. I’m working on 200 pieces of once fired Federal .308 brass right now and it seems to be ok. I also just resized a hundred rounds of R-P .303 Brit nickeled brass (never seen THAT before!) and it seems ok too.
