Thread: Hornady Brass Primer Seating Problems

Has anyone ever experienced trouble seating primers in once fired Hornady brass?

I’ve loaded thousands of rounds over the years but this is the first time I’ve run into this issue. It’s also my first time using Hornady brass. They are just really tight and the odd one completely bends and won’t go in.

I’ve tried two different brands of primers and to rule out my priming tool I’ve put some primers into some other brass and they went in smoothly.

Any advice appreciated.
