And factory ammo chambers overly tight , it would indicate a problem


no. Just no. You can not confirm headspace by whether it ignites a primer or not. Even very loose dangerous headspace will still fire, because the firing pin sticks out of the bolt face.

If you want to check headspace, do it right with go/no go gauges. Or don't bother and just shoot it. Not much point in fooling around with bubba solutions that give you a flawed answer.
