[QUOTE="dirtyhands, post: 4212888, member: 16324"] Hi guys I need some guidance. I went to the range yesterday to shoot my first ever handloads. It all went great I didn't loose and fingers or eyes nor did any of the spent cases look like I had done something wrong. My only issue was that out of the 40 rounds I shot I had probably 10 rounds that didn't fire on the first hammer strike. The last 5 rounds all took second strike to light. I'm using cci large rifle primers in new starline brass loading 45-70. I'm using a lee turret press to press in the primers. I've read conflicting things on the Internet about how much pressure to apply when seating primers. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I still had a great day the pic was my best group at 50 yards with a skinner peep sight. [/QUOTE]
