[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 457930, member: 25383"] I'm assuming you got a good strike on the primer face. Would be interesting to see just how far below the case head the primer is seated (.005" below is about right). You need a good bullet puller to take the round apart. The Hornaday or the Forster both work well. Dump the powder in the trash can! Stand the case upright in a loading tray, and fill the cases up with warm water (not hot) and let them set for a couple hours. Now very carefully decap the primers. I've heard of folks doing this with WD40, but water has always worked well for me. The idea is to kill the primer, and then decap. I'd also be looking at how I prime the cases, as you mabe contaminating them before pressing them into the case body. gary [/QUOTE]
