konkapot Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Been reloading a long time, I've used pistol and rifle primers interchangeably since forever with no drama. Recently, I've had a very hard time getting rifle primers to seat properly/deeply with my 550. Pistol primers have been fine. Press is clean and well maintained. Brass is generally 1-3x fired. Happens with multiple guns. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty_J Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Any particular headstamps? Or all across the board? Can’t say I’ve noticed any issues with those… but I’m loading on an 1100, so I don’t feel much on the primer side of things… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konkapot Posted August 13, 2022 Author Share Posted August 13, 2022 Great question on the headstamps; it's often enough (1-2 per 100) that its probably a mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thermobollocks Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Can you set aside some of the high primers to verify whether it's a single headstamp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
