Excuse me but "not so" to what in my post? I'm now on my 7th 5000 count sleeve of Cheddites and never had one fall out of a Gun Club, AA, Nitro 27, Federal paper or Gold Medal plastic. Also it's hard to argue with a micrometer. Maybe you can tell us more about your reloads?
Primer piercing? That can happen if the firing pin is too long or the tip isn't profiled or it's been gas cut. Yep Winchester primers might be less prone to that but I've seen it happen with Wins and other brands.
