    Bent bases

    I was putting primers in tonight. Using my hand press and giving enough force to seat the primers just below flush on 7mm RM brass. I discovered I had bent the bases on six of them because my Hornady shellholder has a pretty minimal hold on the base. Would another brand have more overlap on the rim?
