    Quality problems with new Lapua brass?

    In quite a few years of using Lapua products, I've never experienced a problem. However, priming new Lapua 6.5-284 cases with Federal 210M primers using a hand priming tool, some of the primers went in so easily that there was absolutely no felt resistance. Other cases had normal resistance...
