I blew my stack
of primers. I am thankful Dillon did their engineering on the primer magazine.
I was loading .223 with full cases of H4895, and, the occasional powder spillage made operation not as smooth as I like. Apparently a primer jammed sideways ands I used too much force in the my regular rhythm. Bang. Other than a primer assembly that will be landfill fodder, and a primer sensor rod that resembles a mountain road, no other damage.
I was loading CCI BR4's and it seemed they varied quite a bit more in s
While the proximity of primers in the disc does help facilitate chain firing, it should be noted that there are plenty of instances (perhaps even the majority?) where a primer detonation at station #2 does not daisy chain through the disc and into the primer magazine. So the proximity alone is not sufficient to daisy chain (after all, the primers are separated by steel in the disc). My guess is the other requirement is the presence of a sufficient amount of primer dust to help propagate the expl
