Primers Backing Out of Rounds in Cylinder?

[gunlaw]

Oops you guys are right. Low pressure. Sorry.

From the OP it was a "possibility" that the primer backed out it was not verified.

The thread title is "misleading"

Not really, that's why the thread tittle ended with a question mark

I want to thank the members for sharing their experiences here. It has given me different routes to pursue to address the issue. I'm happy to find that my understanding of how primers act when fired on-point, but it is always good to have that understanding confirmed...plus the explanations were excellent for future readers of this thread.

I purposely posted this issue in two sub-forums, each slightly modified for specific focus, to solicit input from both ammo and mechanical expertise. It was very interesting that there really isn't that much overlap.

Points made in the other thread, which didn't come up here, were the possibility of bullet jump impacting the chamber throats and forcing the case backwards and powder fouling getting under the ejector star.

I intend to followup by trying the primer only cases, checking the crimp on his ammo, and checking for drag marks on the recoil shield face

That's ok, it's how we learn.

Alternately, you could learn by welding your Bisley .45 Colt into a solid jamb with an experimental Rice Shot load. Took me 5 minutes to puzzle, 2 to get it open, and 30 to ream flash holes open to prevent that.

Do let us know the outcome.

Varmint,
Yes, I agree...

There’s a broad gap between “commercial reloads” and “factory ammo.”

I’ve been reloading for many years.Sorry for the brain cramp.
