Do you have a rpimer pocket cleaner?  Fouling in the pocket can keep the primer form seating properly.  Cheap tool, potentially great difference.

Yes, I cleaned all my pockets, these cases were once fired. Going to try some more Rem primers, just with a case, no powder, or bullets.

Well I did get around today and  primed some cases, out of 10, 6 FTF. I guess i won't be using rem primers anymore. did find some winchester large and small rifle primers, so bought several K's shouldn't run out any time soon.

# 1642 on the side of mine. Only bought a 100 pack, Told the owner of the store where I purchased them about yesterday. He wrote down the lot number just in case anyone has problems also. Bought some more powder and brass gave me 10% off my total for my trouble. did find some wichesters the other day, bought two cases.
