    Re Fiochi primers. During the " great shortage" these became a supply for many in our rifle club. I reloaded a bunch for a guy. Not one FTF, mind you they got a fair smack from his Swing action.
    Some folk did have FTFs but its the same people that have this issue with any brand of primer. Its very rare for it to genuinely be the primer. You can really only blame a primer if it has no compound or the anvil has fallen out. Other than that its a rifle issue or a reloading issue.
