Set 'em in the bright sunshine a few days to get the
moisture out and test fire some again. Very likely that's the problem. I'd offer to take 'em if we can figure a way to get 'em here. I have maybe 10-15,000 from the 50's yet that I inherited from a buddy that cashed his chips 10yrs or more ago. I bought 20,000 SR CCI's that trip, and 5000 LR's. Wanted to buy 25,000 of each size but, PVI didn't have much stock. IF anyone's going to drive by there. Call and place an order weeks ahead of time and they'll get 'em in is what I was told that day.

moorepower, there are two things different about the russian primers. One is that they are a little larger diameter than American primers, so a little more effort is required to seat them. Two, the anvils have to be set during the seating process so they have to be seated a bit harder than you are probably used to. Taken together, these issues have caused a good bit of angst when trying these for the 1st time. If you do some searching on this site, accurateshooter and benchrestcentral you will find multiple threads on the topic. Once you learn to deal with the eccentricities, the russian primers work exceptionally well.

+1 on SmokinJoe's post about making sure the anvil is properly seated. I bought 5,000 Tula small rifle magnum primers and had some fail-to-fire problems until I started seating my primers a bit deeper. No more problems after that.

They are seated hard, and bottomed out. I used to shoot NRA high power and used several in the past so I am familiar with them. I will try setting them out in the sun. Do you take them out of the case or ???

Today, many other mfgr's of primers have followed suit, while the old 6 1/2 Remington primer remained the same and appears to be the softest & weakest of all.
