major issues priming LC one fired with a lee auto prime

[mdp75]

hey guys i am having seriuos issues getting my lake city once fired brass primed with my lee auto prime they dont want to seat most of them go in crooked or smash. I bought them as processed brass and they were processed on a dillon 1050 I saw the man running it when i picked it up. I have had to chuck my chamfer tool in my drill to get the ones i could seat in. here is a pic is it the brass or do i need to go get maybe an RCBS hand prime?

Poor job of "processing. Call and get a refund, or "process" them yourself. I had to fix about 15% of some "processed" brass I bought from Midway once. Last time I ever bought any. Just do it myself now.

I think I got a guy with a 1050 that can do it for me... Thi s guy i bought them from is pretty top notch he is not gonna be happy to see his product like this. I dont have a ton of exp with mil spec brass so i wasn't sure but i thought that was deal.

You really need a G.I. primer crimp remover/reamer.

will that dillion super swage work? I am getting one today

The Dillon Super Swage is considered top notch.

My solution. "The Hornady Primer Pocket Reamer Package is perfect for quickly removing the military crimp from primer pockets."

Thi s guy i bought them from is pretty top notch he is not gonna be happy to see his product like this.

1. Imagine how you, the consumer, feel.
2. Perhaps he's not so top-notch.
3. The 1050 will clearly de-prime, but not necessarily decrimp. (as far as I'm aware. I don't own one, naturally)

I tried the Hornday primer pocket reamer. I thought it took off too much material. I got the RCBS swaging die to use in my single stage press. It's pretty fast. On the first processing, I also put a little bit of a chamfer on the primer pocket. It's makes seating easier.

Given a choice i think i would try the RCBS swager first simply because of price $35.00 Vs. $100.00 of the dillon swager. I think either tool is acceptable and know for a fact the dillon super swage works very well.
The 1050 is advertised to swage out primer crimps and it probably would if set up correctly.
In any event ,if you do it yourself you know it got done.

The 1050 will decrimp military primer pockets - I've been using it successfuly for about two years now.

The separate swager does essentially the same thing, using almost the same swaging rod that's on the press, and for the record, it's cheaper than buying a 1050.

I still use my Lee primer pocket reamer, chucked in my drill press - it's fast, albeit a little messy; I can leave my drill press running, with the primer pocket reamer spinning, and just grab cases and give them a few spins and then toss them into the bucket.
