[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 745118, member: 17844"] It sounds ok to me. The main thing is getting the primer to bottom in the pocket. This way the anvil is on solid ground. It does not matter much where the face of the primer is after that as long as it's below or even flush with the head of the case. If the anvil has to move a few thou to contact the base of the primer pocket it's a slow ignition and also potentially a miss fire . I would not describe the correct feel as a crush. It is more of a sudden stop to the feel of the movement seating and pressure. It's the softly seated primers that give most of the trouble. [/QUOTE]
