[QUOTE="Beneviolence, post: 1271161, member: 99245"] Oh jeez, now I feel stupid. From what you said and others online, it sounds like excessive headspace could cause the flattened primer issues. If that is the cause, once fired brass should not show this, and should show healthy fired primers...? I'll try making a bump gauge to measure and adjust the FL sizing die to bump the shoulder the appropriate amount. I suppose that is the other option to do in conjunction with the above. It looks like with a set of go/no-go gauges, it can be done fairly easily. I'll have to re-form the brass to the appropriate length; hopefully the brass will take that. [/QUOTE]
