[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2226672, member: 1521"] The indicated K&M accounts for each pocket depth, and each primer height, for each primer to be seated, in each case. Correct primer seating is then anvil contact with pocket bottom plus 2-5thou crush, as indicated. I've found that Feds like 2thou crush while CCIs like 5thou for both large and small primers. With greater crushing you risk primer damage, with no potential gain in doing so. I'm sure your product is fine,, not bashing it or anything. Just passing on a relative summary that primer manufacturers would endorse. [/QUOTE]
