Re: Primer depth problem

Do yourself a favor and buy the Sinclair carbide large rifle primer pocket uniformer and drill adapter holder. You might as well get the small rifle primer version and save on shipping.
Do all of your target/match/competition/pimpy cases and then you'll be set.
The Sinclair tool has a predefined shoulder stop that won't allow you to go farther than SAAMI specs dictate. There is no guess work about how deep is deep enough.
It is possible that you have a case with an unusually deep primer pocket, but all primers should be seated below flush, for safety's sake
