Started working up a load for my son's 30/06 and had 2 primers pop out at the range with 1 extruded that fell out and could be put back in with ease. Some supporting information; twice reloaded Federal brass, 180 gr accubond, 56 grain IMR 4350, cci primers, load #1= .005 off lands, #2 = .010 off lands, #3 = .020 off lands. Everything else the same.
Have reloaded with this same charge for this rifle before other than change to length off the lands all's the same. Other difference was brass was tumbled for 3 hours vs over nite.
Would the distance from the lands cause this?
Shot 2 other rounds with a old load with longer distance off the lands with the primers looking the same as those pictured
New load.
Old load.
