I bought 500rd of .300BLK new American Eagle brass. I primed three cases and the primer is visibly higher than the face of the case head. I thought my hand priming tool (RCBS) just wasn't pushing them in far enough. I decided to push the three I did the rest of the way in with my press. No go. I decided to measure. The primer pocket on the brass is 0.018" deep. The CCI 400 small rifle primers are .020" tall.
I'm going to load and fire 2 round to see if it slam fires. I'm not really comfortable with this outcome. Has anyone else come across something like this?
