[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 1081714, member: 2011"] If primer pockets get loose enough that the primer moves when the edge of the rim is tapped on the bench either tighten them or discard them. Bad things WILL happen when pockets are that loose and an impact bullet puller is used. Primer will go off and ricochet around the shop. Luckily the powder didn't ignite. One of the several times that I avoided death or destruction by pure luck......:roll eyes: If you are tempted to use that loose of a primer pocket and have to pull bullets get one of those Grip N Pull things.......
