[QUOTE="signature542, post: 488796, member: 14798"] I had primer cratering.... However, That wasn't due to the primer! Problem was due to the sloppy firing pin. My buddy's edge does the same but its built by a different smith. My rifle like many others is a blue printed and retimed 700...original bolt.. I had too much firing pin slop so my gunmith who is a full bore Commonwealth games gold medalist etc re bushed and made my firing smaller in diametre.. Guesswhat.? No more primer pressure signs ! Better option would have been a PTG bolt. Besides I have learnt and now have a Lawton 7000 fluted bolt L/A on the way down under and I'd goanother Edge on the new 8500XL Lawton! Must admit mine is hammer and I'm running a 30 inch Lawton 8 groove 9.4 twist. gun) [/QUOTE]
