[QUOTE="Bill Johnson, post: 1044735, member: 84129"] The do go "Bang". If a primer, which is an explosive, versus smokeless powder which isn't, went PFFFFT, it would be because it's a dud. And a good primer will expel the bullet from the case and lodge it in the throat. Blown up actions have been documented many times as having occurred because a round had no powder, the shooter didn't realize they just had a squib load so chambered and shot another round. That said, deprime in your press as everyone has stated. Wear that eye protection! [/QUOTE]
