Sierra Nevada bottles?

Hi all,
Being the frugel (cheap) person I am, and considering all the different beer out there that is in need of drinking, I usually will not buy a brew unless it is in a bottle I can clean and refill with my own beer. Therefore, I don't generally buy Sierra Nevada, because they are twist off. Has anyone re-used twist off bottle of this type with success?

I have had mixed results with them. Sometimes the carb up nice and sometimes they don't, with all things being equal. I'm fond of DogFish Head 90 IPA so I use thier bottles. The labels come off easy and the bottles work great for homebrew.

You can only use twist offs if you have the special thin crown for them, & a bench capper.
