[QUOTE="429421Cowboy, post: 796130, member: 54332"] Before i even clicked on this thread my first thought was exactly what Broz said, either too light of a pin or spring. Maybe it is my background in single action revolvers but most primer issues can be traced back to lightened mainsprings in them, and this transfers over to rifles as well. I have never had a single problem with many thousands of CCI primers out of my guns, but i maintain that all of my hunting guns MUST have stock weight springs in them, there are plenty of other things to do to a gun, but reducing relyablity is not on my list! Add a light spring/pin and the fact that CCI cups are known to be harder, and it could just be enough to make life tough. Now, this may turn out to be a totally different problem for you, but that is my 2 cents on lighter springs. [/QUOTE]
