[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 438929, member: 21068"] Good question and good practice principles. I suppose that a primer could fail occasionally, just as some bullets occasionally fail. I imagine nothing is perfect (as much as we'd like it to be anyway).:rolleyes: I'd be curious to hear if anyone else has seen primer variance, and if so.....how much velocity loss? Or was it just discounted as an error on the shooters part.?? I've only ever had one handload fail to fire due to a primer, but have had a few factory loads fail to fire due to a "dud" primer. I've had totally unexpected fliers and misses occasionally myself and no concrete evidence as to why. They coudn't even be repeated. Hope you get some good responses back on this one. [/QUOTE]
