[QUOTE="jpndave, post: 1998316, member: 5437"] This is spot on. Primers are not fully seated on some. Firing pin seats them when the don't go off, next try they are seated fully and work. I recently switched to that K&M tool (in part due to Shep's recommendation) and it works extremely well. I have tried may of the others and the K&M quality is much better (I haven't tried the 21st Century). You can feel the primer bottom then slightly pre-load/crush. The Lee holder set works great in it and is less $ I don't know of a better way to get the primers set consistently every time. Feel is MUCH better than on a press. I think by feel is much better than measuring since brass can vary and it isn't about getting them to an even height but fully seated with that slight crush. Get those primers seated all the way and you will be golden. [/QUOTE]
