[QUOTE="jasonco, post: 1692048, member: 15637"] A cratered primer is caused by material from the primer cup, being forced back into the firing pin hole, upon ignition. This occurs from too high a pressure in the case. Flattened primer, is from the same thing. Although the flattening on this primer is minimal, it is there. He has just barely exceeded max pressure. You can shoot, but over time, he will have increased head space and will shorten the life of his barrel throat.[/QUOTE] And that is dependent on choice of primer. [/QUOTE]
