[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1820112, member: 1521"] Doesn't sound like a pressure problem. Flattening primers can occur with high headspace until new brass is fire formed. What happens; On firing the primer slams back against the bolt face, proud of it's pocket support and flattening a bit. Then as load pressure builds the case stretches back to the bolt face, reseating the flattened primer. Don't plan anything serious with new brass until it's fire formed to fit your chamber, and sized per your plan -from there.. [/QUOTE]
