Gary, think we got off track with different primers. Austin said primer pockets were big and the bottom of shells were not flat. I don't know if the press caused the bottom to bow like my 9000 will. The shells rock in the press and will fall over when it happens. And I don't know if that will also enlarge the primer pocket. I would first check the shell before and after it was deprimed for flatness. I would also deprime by hand [ a dowel and nail ] to check the primer pocket. See if it stayed tight when done by hand and when done with the press. Also, do you have this problem with other brands of shells ? Just some suggestions to start in the beginning.
