Will they cause a squib if they don't work or just not go bang?

Lead styphnate primers are unusually stable. The old corrosive chlorate primers would dud out in time, lead styphnate primers probably, but I have not seen it in primers that dated back to the 60’s. I bought over 700 primed cases of RA 54 30-06 in the eighties, every loaded round went bang.
I still have WSR primers that date to 1994, they have been stored in controlled environments, and they shoot fine.
Based on what little I found on primers, heat is bad for primers. Don’t get them 200 F or higher.
