[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3600764, member: 41653"] Loading up some 7.62x54r rounds for just some casual shooting, so I am using salvaged primers - i.e. primers I punched ouot of other rounds that were unshootable for one reason or another. I fumble-fingered the primer getting it into the installation cup, and it bounced around a few times....then hit the floor and rolled under the bench. And it's the last primer of the batch. Dangit. I crawl around under there with a flashlight looking, because, hey, it's a primer. Probably worth $20 these days. And I find it ! Sort of... [ATTACH type="full"]211825[/ATTACH] Looks like it's missing something. The anvil fell out when it bounced around. I have no idea where it is... crawl around more, turn off the lights and hold the flashlight parallel to the floor.... Lo ! What is this ? [ATTACH type="full"]211826[/ATTACH] I found another primer ! a complete one this time ! Woo-Hoo ! But there's still an anvil down there lurking in the dark amongst the other detritus... This is gonna bug me. [/QUOTE]
