[QUOTE="MajorSpittle, post: 1559591, member: 53101"] [ATTACH]119658[/ATTACH] This is what the primer/brass looked like..... this is NOT an image the primer/brass that blew out on me in my rifle, unfortunately I was upset an chucked the brass after looking at it. Primer was still seated fine and no pressure signs or anything other then a pin hole on edge of cup and carbon from the gas that pitted my bolt face. I had been getting Chrono readings and was shooting groups, so I was checking the brass each time I fired, because I switch primer and I knew that they seated with much less force into the brass than the CCI primers did. I had a load developed that was grouping great and I was happy with: 3006, 58gr IMR4831 @ 2750fps. Book max was 59.5 @ 2900fps. I just wanted to see if I could use CCI200/WLR primers without it affecting accuracy or velocity because I was running low on CCI primers and have a ton of WLR primers. [/QUOTE]
