[QUOTE="Cholla, post: 3098962, member: 124288"] I bought 1K of Remington LRM primers at a show. I have been trying to develop 7 PRC loads and work on my 7 Rem Meg simultaneously. Of the 20 loads I made, nine failed to fire. I pulled the loads and found the primers unfired. I called Remington and they claimed since I bought them at a show, there was zero warranty. They felt the seller could have stored them improperly. Okay. So, I tracked down more LRM primers at a shop in Phoenix, which turned out to be Remington. I gritted my teeth and bought them. Of the next 20 loads, I had one FTF. I put all the bad primers in 7 Rem Mag brass and ran them through my Remington 700. Half fired. So I think my new Ruger has a weak hit on the firing pin. I think I should clean it out before getting too worked up. Does anyone else have issues with Remington taking more energy to set off? I have been using Federal, but I'm about out. [/QUOTE]
