TexasSeaRay, I recently bought 1000 CCI SRM primers to feed my 454Casull. The first 40 rounds I loaded... 2 complete duds.
(Read like Bill Shatner) "I'm... relatively newish. To reloading., ...but my God". I've shot thousands of Winchester so far without one hiccup.
I did buy 100 CCI LR to try and found no duds in that package but needless to say my confidence in CCI primers is shattered forever.
Anybody in the SE Ohio area wanna pick up 960 CCI SRM primers on the cheap? Afore mentioned problems will be forwarded to potential buyer!

When 'installing' the new primer do not be afraid to give the handle a 'firm' push when seating so the anvil and cup are fully inserted. The reason is so the firing pin does not have to 'finish' seating the primer for you.
These are probably not duds, more so insufficiently seated primers.
