So you think this will offset some of your savings for reloading?
Again .. we don't save money reloading , We just shoot more ! I spent over $600 at Cabela's last month , don't even remember what I bought

he was right. I missed three anvils and two cups. Im trying to get the stupid xray pics to convert to an uploadable format from the disc they gave me- but no dice yet.
With that in mind, I've already learned the most valuable lessons- which I hope having paved this road for you, I implore that you take to heart :
#1- If a piece of shooting or reloading kit is out of spec, replace it immediately. That $90 primer assembly does not so costly sound now. As Don says ; "Never underestimate the amount of toil and angst a cheap SOB will put himself through to save 5 cents" This could apply to any piece of kit however- a choke tube, a hinge pin, any mechanism piece, really. The workaround you come up with may work many times before the time it doesn't. Conditions may be vastly different from the times it worked before, in ways you don't fully grasp in your ignorance.
#2 Federal primers are indeed much more sensitive than CCI. In fact, according to the MSDS sheets provided by the hospital the only common ones still to contain nitroglycerin.
That explains a few things.
#3 Primers are plenty powerful. As RC says, "never put all your primers in a glass jar."
#4 ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION.
and last but not least,
#5 When your wife says go to the hospital, GO. yes , HE-MAN, I'm talking to you.
