    Never had a primer failure in .223 or 300aac. Used Feds and CCI. Might pay to check your firing pin protrusion.

    Yeah, but if firing pin has worked fine on numerous other brands with no problems why would it be that? In saying that you are probably not wrong but for a different reason that the case is too short.
    Have a feeling I was sitting in front of TV with Drill and trimmer a while back and have slightly over trimmed some brass as Greg has pointed out.
