    Greetings @Kelton an all,
    Had a look through fired cases from my rifles and the cratering seems more common with small rifle primers. In .223 my Remington VSSF shows some but the T3 does not with the same primers and similar loads. None of the large rifle primed cartridges shows any including two Remingtons, one in 7mm SAUM and book max loads.
    Regards Grandpamac.
