Being cautious is exactly the best way to be.

To me they look very normal with no signs of flattening (based on the still rounded edge of the outer part of the primer near the case head).

But I find flattened primers to be one of the less reliable of the many ways to determine if you are approaching a maximum load. While not all apply, an excellent list can be found here.
