[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1388846, member: 4191"] I blew a primer today, but at much less pressure than the OP's cartridge. Still a surprise to me. It's been a decade or longer since I've ejected a casing with no primer.:mad: RL26 in my 30/375 SI. It was the lowest powder charge of the 4 loads I intended to shoot. It was the only load I fired after the wisp of smoke and blown primer. Haven't investigated causes yet, but will pull bullets and reweigh charges on the 3 remaining, unfired cartridges. A mystery. Primer pocket swelled about 0.004". Hope I can sort it out... [/QUOTE]
