Problem seating primers

I'm using a rcbs hand primer seating...thing-a-ma-bob. Can't think of the word. And when I try to seat primers they stick out .008 in, according to my calipers. When I seat them it leaves a small dimple in the primer. I clean the primer pockets and uniform the flash holes of all my brass.

Now, if I were shooting a magazine fed or single shot rifle this wouldn't be a problem, but I'm shooting high recoil rounds out of a lever-action rifle. I'd rather not have it blow up on me and I don't want to destroy a rifle to find out if it will.

So is this a problem? I'm using beartooth mountain pile drivers, so huge flat nose. Right now my lever gun is a 2 shooter.
