MAGTECH primer problems

[sarge4318]

Never had the problem with few large primers I've seated in the 650, but I do prime the vast majority of my cases by hand.

I've never had a MagTech primer fail to fire and I've used them exclusively for many years and many thousands of rounds, this alone would make me use them even with your problem feeding them through the tube - just hand prime and carry on.

Now it's funny you should say that. I fired 10x .38 specials last night and had one failure. It seemed to have a healthy dent in the cap, but no bang.

I'd only loaded 10 because I wanted to test the gun with .38 spl rather than .357, mainly because I had feeding problems with the former last week. I initially attributed the feeding to the SWC bullet so had bought a RN mould.

I have found with alot of primer feeders it pays to have 100 or more in the thing,
keeps a good weight on them , pushing them down the tube and stops jams,
