Well, that alone tells me I did the crimped ones wrong last time. The first time I did some priming was on non crimped brass (and even though there is a post I made when I didn't push hard enough the first time I primed floating around lol) there was a marked difference in the two experiences. I might also try using the Lee Ram Prime for once, but the Lee XR, when not having annoying issues with primers loading, is pretty easy. I've been told thought you get a better feel when using a non ram primer FWIW.Pictures won't help in determining if you have swaged the primer pocket correctly. The easiest way is to try seating a primer. If you haven't removed enough of the crimp, you will have difficulty in seating the primer. If you have over-swaged, the primer will seat with too little resistance. Its a "feel" operation.
