    Interesting thread.
    I tested some primers on behalf of someone suffering misfires, who wanted to prove the primer or his gun, I didn't have the gun, or equivalent caliber so deprimed 10 cases in question and seated the primers in a cartridge I could dry fire. They all went bang at the squeeze of the trigger.
    So to my experience it can be done, but as others have noted, probably best for range rounds as opposed to hunting rounds.
    buzzman and Micky Duck like this.
