[QUOTE="JMAY2174, post: 822427, member: 55355"] If your primer does not go into the primer pocket to flush or lower, the problem is the case, [B]not[/B] the primer!!! Primers are made to much greater tolerances than are cases. Benchrest shooters and other shooters who are inteested in maximum accuracy always ream the primer pockets with a primer pocket reamer (uniformer). This tool will ream the pocket to the correct depth and remove the rounded bottom edge in the pocket which can cause the primer to not completely set to the correct depth. These tools cost about $10 or so. During the original case forming, the flash hole is punched and sometimes leaves a burr inside the case. You can buy a deburring tool or just use a drill bit of the correct caliber to remove the burr. Note: The uniforming and deburring only needs to be done once. Joel [/QUOTE]
