I hack sawed a round from neck to shoulder to give me an indication on where the lands are. I get repeatable results. There is not much resistance when pushing projectile into lands so if you have a standard fired case you probably won't be getting a good reading on the lands. You'll be pushing projectile into the lands. Check projectile for marks to confirm.
If primer is poking out put it back in priming system and push it in, unless you're worried there is something under it. If primer is too deep I'd just load it up anyways. You could fire primer, de-prime then reprime.
