[QUOTE="RegionRat, post: 2894738, member: 57231"] I you don't find pitting on the bolt face, coupled with little or no evidence near the primer on the empty cases.... then you should re-inspect the cases and proceed with an extra eyeball going forward. Watch the primer pocket inspections, and watch the installation. Examine each and every shot on the next session and stop if you see a problem. Normally, a primer cup rupture isn't difficult to verify, and a leak between the primer cup and the brass pocket is also easy to find. That you got soot but are not finding evidence of a primer leak is better than finding damage to the bolt face, but you should still clean up and double inspections to be in the best position to debug that soot.
