They sure seem soft to me. Took em in trade, I don’t think I’ll use em. Not sure what other caliber to use them in which would qualify as not high pressure. I guess maybe for bolt guns, modest loads?
Mixed review. I was priming a bunch of 223 with my trusty old Lee hand primer that I’ve been using for 40 years. The cups seem to be copper with somewhat thick walls. Walls are also a bit soft so especially at first one portion of the cup rim would catch and the primer wouldn’t seat evenly...
Seriously, those old shower pans are usually really soft, close to pure lead. They can be alloyed with linotype or wheel weights to produce decent bullets. I assume you aren’t a caster. List under free, somebody will gladly take it off your hands.
Why not just take a spent primer, place it in a hard flat surface like the anvil plate on a bench vise, and use a small punch on the inside to flatten the cup back out? Then you can polish and seat it back in your case
I run a Dillon 750, a Lyman Tmag and an RCBS rockchucker. I thought I’d use the Dillon more than I do. I rarely load fully loaded rounds on it. I find I use it for brass prep for the most part. Actual loaded rounds, usually the turret unless it’s small count, rifle calibers for distance...
LOOK like a retard? Assuming the rest isn’t photoshopped, two casings in mid air means full auto at that spacing. If you squeeze off two with that sight picture an inch from your eyeball, on FA, you’ve gone full tard.
