I’ve located a source of pre-primed brass online and they will ship to MA, sans hazmat fee. $119 shipped for 100 rounds of 5.56. My question is: are there any disadvantages or pitfalls to reloading pre-primed brass?

I meant $119 for 250 pieces$1 a round? That’s more than loaded.
I should have bought more, in hind sight i should have sold my 7500 fired cases and bout 3k wolf primed. Well lets hope it comes back in stock. Im also at a point where I will just buy wolf 55 grain for 200 yards and in.Yup: Primed Wolf 223 brass. Greatest thing since sliced bread, the internal combustion engine, and free internet porn. I was buying it on sale just last year for about 13 cents a piece delivered. I'd see the price go below $130 per thousand and I'd order another 2-3000.
I would put it through a neck die in the first station on my Dillon 650 in an attempt to get a somewhat consistent neck tension, but then just dump powder in, cap with a good bullet, and shoot X's.
I'll sell my once-fired brass for maybe 10 cents a piece and then go buy more Wolf. It's my intention to never size a piece of 223 brass ever again.
