HI,
Never had this happen before.
Just sized & deprimed some PMC 357 brass. had primed & shot it before with no problem w/ CCI primers.
This last load was 13grs. WC820 W/ 180gr bullet. Yes it is a hot load.
Started to bell & re prime the brass & for 6 strait brass the primer would not go in.
So took a drill bit & camphored the primer pockets, then I could with difficultly seat the primers but 5 just fell out & 1 had a deformed side but stayed in.
Too hot a load will enlarge a primer pocket, but these are acting like crimped primer pockets & appear to be swaging down the primers as they go in ,then the primers fall out.
What the heck is going on???:killingpc
