So tonight, I loaded a few rounds just to make sure I was seating the primer all the way down.
I loaded 30 rounds. Same formula as listed in the original post, except I used once-fired RP brass this time.
15 rounds through the M&P40. 4 failures to fire.
15 rounds through the Glock 22. 0 failures to fire.
So while I might not have been seating the primers deep enough originally, I think I can now rule that out as a possibility for the failures to fire.
RH45 - I have not been measuring my pistol brass before loading it. I do it religiously for 223, but have read in multiple places where it was not necessary in pistol rounds.
With the failures now of both RP brass and Winchester brass, it may be safe to also assume case length is not the problem. Hellifino.
