[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1995235, member: 10755"] Ahh, but as the case head expands, the primer pocket shortens a few tenths. This is why those primer pocket cutter things remove material each use. If I find a problem pocket, which happens from time to time, I seriously debate whether to get my swager out. As stated I don’t touch pockets, but if I have 100 pieces of brass that won’t take a primer, I’m more inclined to send them back rather than d*ck around with them. I found the biggest difference to CONSISTENT group size was not from primer pockets, but HOW the primers are SEATED and whether the flash holes are clean and free from burrs. If you look closely at pockets, you will find they are concave on the bottom, this is how they were designed to be, making them flat restricts the primer flash, sure they are all uniform, but I can’t see how this is beneficial. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
