[QUOTE="EricL, post: 1183886, member: 90293"] I have had that happen with a 243 but I was using large mag pistol primers. Switched to large rifle like I should have been using and problem went away. Also there is a good chance the missing piece of primer is now somewhere inside the bolt assembly keeping the firing pin from striking the next primer (that's what happened on mine). You should be able to take apart the bolt and clean it out and everything be fine, or any smith could if you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself. [/QUOTE]
