[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 376466, member: 8358"] Reading primers isn't totally reliable for determining chamber pressure but it certainly is a decent indicator. In my limited experience when the entire visible surface of the primer is flattened and the edge of the primer is almost indistinguishable you are in very excessive pressure. Usually when the primers are showing this deformation the case heads are also showing shiney spots, and often bolt lift is stiff when extracting the empty case. [/QUOTE]
