my Remington does the cratering too.(on pretty much any load)
the edge of the primer is still round, not flat. the extractor mark could be from soft brass.
I also had factory superformance ammo put extractor marks on cases, but probabley not the bright.
I don't think its too hot, but the extractor marks suck. check the velocity isn't too high.
if it wont last five firings, maybe it is too hot.
but im fairly new to re-loading.
