Another thing I noticed but didn't attach any significance to at the time was that the decapping pin's collet (not the one that holds the pin assembly in the resizing die, but the one that actually holds the 1/2" pin itself onto the end of the shaft) was a little loose, and this probably gave the pin a little bit of wiggle. So if the primer got stuck onto the pin, it would actually have an easier time catching the pocket, since the dangly pin would allow it enough horizontal sway to guide itself into place. Snugging that down firmly should give the primer a tougher time in lining back up again.

I'm headed down to the bench to build another 100 rounds or so. We'll see what happens.
