    No military crimp ebf. Its hornady custom brass and its non military calibres im loading. Just a 90 degree sharp outer edge on the outside of the primer pocket. Most other brass I use has a curved/chamfered edge and the primers slip in nicely.

    Take them back before you go marking your bolt face.

    I had two batches of Winchester primers ( the brass ones) in two calibres blow out. Neither were hot loads.
    Just my experience. Not dangerous, just messes up your bolt face.
    See the seperate thread on Winchester primers.

    The more experience you can build within reason before buying your own gear, the less you will end up spending, and the more "fit for YOUR purpose" the gear you ultimately buy will be.

    I've said it before ... most of us in this game have got garages full of expensive gear (not limited to hunting / guns / reloading ) which is not really what you ultimately want / need

    So keep being stubborn ... for A WHILE ..

    Like most teens you'll probably get the boot sooner or later

    Not if they knew you were loading for the 270win. Probably all they had.
    I haven't had any experience with those.

    Some guys will have no issue using magnum primers but I personally wouldn't.
