[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 925218, member: 35183"] Hornady started crimping the primers on their superformance ammo at some point. I know the first I bought was not crimped and later batches were. You can actually remove the tight spot using the chamfering tool provided by Hornady in their reloading kit or get a proper primer pocket reamer. I have bought a swaging tool, but I did not find it to be satisfactory on the 308 brass (LC) I tried it on, so I stopped using it. My swaging tool did not open the entry into the pocket sufficiently and so starting the primers was a bear. [/QUOTE]
