[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 2008942, member: 11960"] Hornady loads all their stuff pretty hot, but it's still safe. You could switch to a different powder to help with the soot on the necks or possibly try annealing the cases. I wouldn't worry about it if they're shooting well. Just throw the cases in a tumbler or wipe them off with rubbing alcohol on a rag to clean them up. The backed out primers could be a result of improper case sizing in the Contender. Break action pistols are very sensitive to headspace issues and excessive headspace could cause your backed out primers. If you're not familiar with Mike Bellm, his site has a lot of great information about single-shot pistols. This is just one of the many articles he wrote about headspace in TCs. Granted, he's explaining a problem which he's also selling a solution for. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.bellmtcs.com/blog/correcting-headspace-with-our-shims/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
