RE ww primers, if they are brass color they are soft. If silver they are some of the hardest out there...
TI pin... first time you pierce a primer you have a really expensive paperweight... FWIW.
The issue can be as simple as too light of a trigger. Anything 3.5 pounds or so or less, thats not 2 stage, generally speaking, can give issues.
And some of those are related totally to how the gun is held, how it recoils and how you hold/pull/reset the trigger...
Rost, I have a good supply of silver WW's circa Y2k and they are very soft. Same for the new silver WW pistol primers I bought.
Did the specifically harden the cups on their small rifle primers, because I haven't noticed it on their large rifle, pistol, or shotgun primers?
Silver is supposed to be some coating... nickel? Harder than without. Never saw a single issue with a silver WWSR primer.
I have personally had 2 slam fires, singles, with Fed SR primers. Wont' use em again. YMMV.
I've spoken with folks about the new brass colored WWSR that have seen a slam fire or two, these folks are no less than national champions in the game.... I trust them in other words.
Life is to short, to many choices of primers, to choose ones that MIGHT create an issue.
Guess with TWR, same could be said about cheap lowers. LOL.
But a slam fire costs me teh match. Won't risk that.
But no, I cannot at all see 3 slam fires in a row.
