[QUOTE="steelhorse, post: 1610397, member: 18274"] I had similar problems from this ammo. shooting a Ruger Security Six. Out of the 2 shots that I fired: one was a FTF(tried to shoot 4-5 times with no results) the other that did fire left a raised pimple-like spot on the primer(I had a hard time opening the cylinder). I contacted Hornady, sent the box back(shipping on their dime), and around two months later they sent me a new box with softer primers. They said that the revolver that I was shooting may have had a weak spring but other ammo. worked fine, including Federal Hydra-Shocks, and Winchester white box. I was told that they tested the primers and they were with in tolerance but borderline. [/QUOTE]
