[QUOTE="wonderman4, post: 1789880, member: 72101"] I am going to get snotty on you. First, you already admitted to being a "noob". Your word. Second: you do not seat primers flush. They are seated 0.003"-0.005" below flush (in other words recessed). Third: you are taking it for granted that your chamber has a 0.361" freebore. How the hell do you know if you haven't measured the chamber from the bolt face to the lands?? Fourth: a newbie blowing primers is as dangerous as playing catch with hand grenades as has been proven by your actions. My suggestion is to back off from the loading bench or whatever you use and do some research by reading a couple of loading manuals and get a copy of the "ABCs of Reloading" and read the book thoroughly, then read it again.
