[QUOTE="upacreek, post: 982100, member: 59039"] While doing barrel break in I shot some federal and winchester factory loads. I noticed the primers were brass colored. They flatten out completely compared to my cci 250 primers. Should I look for flat primers at all when looking for pressure signs and just keep giong until I get a sticky bolt or ejector mark? I have never loaded past the flat primer condition cause that was what I was taught. I cant decide if factory primers are just weaker than cci or if factory loads are hotter than what I load. Any input would help. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
