I do not like shooting ammo that will crack the necks when fired. The reason is that hot gasses will pass through the crack and can burn the neck of the chamber. If it happens too much, this burning can remove metal - in really bad neck splitting occurrences. If there is a crack, the case cannot protect the chamber neck.

Pull the bullets, dump the powder - de-prime and anneal - that is what I would do.

Salvaging the bullets and cases is important if you want to reload at some point.
