    I guess you are already fully aware of the potential issues shooting your type of platform and do check for proud primers?

    To be honest I just do a visual on my primer depth.

    Thinking about the issue I had yesterday, I went back and looked at my note book and I can see that while testing 3 weeks ago I also had 2x double fires (two rounds slam fired?) at the NZDA range while testing three different kinds of brass again...Guess which one had the issue!! RG..bugger me.
    I just went and primed about 700 rounds of the RG expecting to load them all off the back of yesterdays testing..guess that's not going to happen now, I'd rather get some more FNB to clean up and use.

    Thoughts? Sell the primed RG or throw it?

    As you don't want to use it for safety reasons selling it with full disclosure and a bolt gun only recommendation would seem to be the way to go to me-binning it seems a waste but selling it as preped and primed brass would weigh on my mind unless I was up front about it
