    When seating my primers I mark any that are excessively loose with a line across the base with a sharpie, I'll load it and shoot it as normal, but toss it out after that firing. It seems my federal 308 brass wears out primer pockets faster than the necks...

    I got some previously fired .303 brass recently and a few of them had a mark across the case head. I was wondering what that line was there for and you may have pointed me in the right direction. I'll have to check the primer pockets when I'm processing those.
