[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1513509, member: 4191"] Yes, I have also overdone it, but similar to your corrective measure, I will run my K&M primer pocket uniforming cutter into the primer pocket (PP). It's a carbide cutter which removes a little brass at the surface of the case head, as necessary. Actually, I'm leaning towards a little over-tightening as a standard operating practice in order to extend the tightening down further into the PP. Then remove a little brass at the entrance of the PP with the uniforming cutter. This could also be expected to improve the consistency of the PP ID across all cases. It's another step, and a bit tedious. But the tightening of PPs isn't performed on all cases, so it's not a big burden. Only necessary on the cases where I've overdone throttle pedal force. [/QUOTE]
