The primers are crimped this was XM193.
still available

Are crimped primers bad or something?

 

[103M 95G]

Nope, proves that they have not been reloaded. The above don't want to deal with the additional step of removing the crimp.

The crimps on the Lake City aren't too bad compared to some.

Dan Zelenka has told me of 1 of his fellow HP shooters that just deprimes and reprimes without doing anything about the crimp. The occasional lost primer is easier & cheaper to deal with than the crimp.

I tried it and the LC is no problem. Doesn't work with Monarch/Privi brass. You can remove the crimp with a case deburring tool. There are other thngs that work depending on if you get the technique down.

There's numerous ways to remove the crimp. Some people do it with a pocket knife; I ended up buying the Dillon Super Swage 600, but like Dan, I've found that a lot of LC brass simply didn't need to be swaged at all. The Dillon swager is so easy to use I do it anyway. I do separate LC brass by year. And a .223 case gauge is a must with once-fired military brass, IMHO. I've found a lot of rims out-of-round on LC brass (type of weapon used, run over, I don't know?). But a case gauge will guarantee you get a spec'ed round, and it takes microseconds to check.

Having all 09' is a plus. Having it tumble is even nicer. The stuff is usually filthy.

Oh, if Mike falls through, I'll take it.

This is usually due to MG rounds, they really do a number on brass, you might want to check the entire brass real close they do sometimes tear the case head as well.
