[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 518796, member: 21068"] I have decapped live primers, but was very carefull about it. I wasn't very comfortable doing it, but I've done it. I used a hand decapper and wore a leather glove. I pointed both ends of the case away from me and wore safety glasses. Likewise, I've fired primers only too. I don't know for fact if that is harmful in any way to the barrel, I kinda doubt it would be. I just cleaned the barrel/chamber after I did it just in case. Curious why you bought factory ammo if you aren't going to shoot it.....don't they sell virgin brass for those cartridges? [/QUOTE]
