    Thats normal with some batches of Norma brass these days

    Just lube the primer pocket with redding sizing lube on a cotton ear bud and the primers are far easier to seat to full depth.

    Do not bully/force them in, that mindset should be avoided with anything to do with reloading, gently gently protects your face, and eyes, and ears, and fingers..............
