[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 736443, member: 48043"] I had that happen a while back with my 7stw. The brass wasn't that old and the primers seated correct, but I had two primers loose gas at the side similar to yours. The cups were fine at the edge and one of the brass succesfully fired again so I believe it was bad primer cups with impurities in the copper. To be safe I retired the brass; I don't need a gas burned bolt face on a rifle I haven't pushed. [/QUOTE]
