    White River Primers - Any misfire issues?

    I loaded up 20 odd rounds of 284win 140BTs with RE16 filling the case (slight crunch) and only difference to normal was White River primers vs FED210s as was running low. Tikka rifle/anction and never any issues before. Cases full length sized.

    Didn’t have much time as was just checking zero vs my normal load with 162s

    2 out of 5 didn’t go off. Primer was hit. This was confidence killing as I can’t hunt with a load I don’t know if it will ignite.

    Has anyone else experienced this with WRE primers?
