I am aware that some cases have small primer pockets (I’m not sure how that saves them money?) I have also had a small pocketed case slip past my sorting, but had no issues other than my press wouldn’t “seat” the primer (this is done by pushing the handle forward to drop the ram past it’s normal bottom position) . The key here is to realize that something is amiss and to stop “do not try to force it”…….which should be a rule for all reloaders at any stage of the of the process. I would guess that the reloader who experienced this issue may have tried to muscle it in. Thankfully the Dillon is so well designed that it contained the detonation just the way Dillon said it would.
