I've been reading lots of posts of here but this is my first one.
I'm new to reloading but trying to lean everything I can but here's my problem. I'm loading speer 115gr TMJ's over 4.5grs of W231 with a OAL of 1.130. These loads work fine in my M&P's and FNX9. I just tried them in a Sig p226 and a few of the cases have flattened primers. It seemed to happen a little more often with the Winchester primers but it also happened with the wolf primers. Is overpressure the only cause of flat primers or is there something else I can look for?
