I've been having a problem while primering my brass. The two priming tools that I've tried are an RCBS bench manual primer and a Lee AutoPrime. The AutoPrime was discarded after trying only between 50-100 primes due to some were impossible to shove in and the tool just seemed sloppy.
The RCBS bench-mounted manual primer works great when everything is just right but most of the time there is a slight curl of brass in the cup of the primer arm left from around the primer hole of the last casing. Some primers go in so hard that the casing rim gets warped by being pushed up and almost out of the shell holder. :banghead:
My brass mostly seem to have a partial arc of leftover something (?) in the primer pocket that I can't remove with a pocket cleaner. If I knew how to get a picture into this thread it would help in explaining the once-fired brass primer pocket shape.
Does anyone else have this problem? Anyone have a cure?
P.S. It does the same with several brands of brass. (.223Rem shot in an AR-15)
