[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 2472419, member: 77249"] Looks to me like someone ran some Winchester primers in some Federal cases. That 1 or 2 thousands difference in primer size Can allow gas leakage. I have a 270 Win. has a couple of those marks. In about 1980 Winchester had some bad brass in their primer cups. The forming caused minute cracks in the primer cup at the 90 degree bend. A little loose gas and Ouch for the bolt face. [/QUOTE]
