Interesting to say the least. (I'd never suspect a bolt wouldn't simply force-crimp the seated edge of the primers in the pocket and close home.)

I'll also admit that I've never had a Lee Auto/Hand primer not seat fully home. I use that AutoPrimer (old style) exclusively in all my handloading. I(and a lot of other people) would be interested if you find that to have been the problem.

I'd get/use that pocket uniformer in any case, just in case. Chucked in a cordless drill and it's a 1-second operation.

and peace of mind.....
