[QUOTE="g0rd0, post: 1350089, member: 44168"] I don't want to brand bash but, last spring I received 200 wlrm primers,( I usually use fed or cci ) and loaded up 100 154 grn and 100 145 grn rnds. 7mm,rm. The powder and amounts that I used where 1 tenth below max and my "goto" loads. At the range 3 out of 20 rnds of 154's had small pin holes in the primers and 2 out of 3 rnds of 145's had the same holes. Put all away went home and started pulling bullets and checking powder wieghts. All weights where +/- 1 tenth of a grain. I then deprimed (tossed the wlrm primers) reprimed with ccilrm and started out all over again. Had I started at the start load and worked up would there have been any blown primers? That I cannot answer but, my lesson learnt is if it works dont ###k with it and if you do change your powder or primer do a work up. Too bad that I did not record the lot # but, has anyone had any issues with wlrm primers? [/QUOTE]
