[QUOTE="Rustygun, post: 3765364, member: 4711"] It has been a few years since I loaded rifle ammo as I shoot mostly pistol, but I don’t think it is possible to seat a primer to deep. If it is possible it is because the depth of primer pocket on the brass is not correct. I always thought the primer has to be firmly seated against the bottom of the primer pocket. If it is not, the impact of the striker will seat it all the way. So instead of denting the primer, the impact just pushes the primer the rest of the way into the pocket resulting in what looks like a light primer strike. I would think that if you seat primers ”shallow” or not all the way bottomed out in the pocket you get even more light strike problems. I am interested to see what others have to say. [/QUOTE]
