I wouldn't do it. A lot of labs use automatic cutters. If there is a shift
in frame location, you may get a bunch of frames chopped in half.
(I've had that happen even without reloading.) Film is cheap, especially
compared to lost photo ops, and you aren't charged for prints or mounts
of blank frames. The automatic equipment may print them anyway, but you
can get the charges rescinded. If you develop yourself, or can ensure
the lab will cut by hand, you can try it.
