Which primer are you using? nevermind I went back and looked you are shooting a W209 which should just drop and fall out.
Mike,
This all of a sudden just started for him. Primers like you already know are all over the map on sizes. I think a little JB'S with a qtip around the primer pocket on the plug might do the trick. I seen this on another thread and sounds like a great idea. Or even try I different batch of primers.
