[QUOTE=George Stanton;215856]Yes the Cheddites are easily pierced. Just a bit of rounding may solve the problem. An occasional pierced primer is not a big deal. Unlike a box lock gun, there is no direct path to the inside of your locks.
Thanks for pointing that out. On second look, you are correct. I have seen hammerless stocks broken by pierced primers, so I made an incorrect jump in my reasoning. With only 17 shells left, I will shoot them up and not use any primer from Cheddite ever again. The blowback will not do anything hopefully but to smoke up the firing pins.
Update: Put masking tape over firing pin holes, pushed pins through, took off sharp points with fingernail emery boards. Primed two shells with Winchester 209s, fired, nice round holes in primers, no more sharp points going through hopefully. Now to get a turkey with this outdated contraption.
