    I think it's just an optical shadow issue making the firing pin hole look odd. I'm sure its a nice rounded tip.

    Good spotting the ejector swipe as I did notice 2 cases with a bright shiny new mark on them when I picked them up. A few weeks later they have faded somewhat.

    Marty the flat primer with the ejector mark was from one of the 75gr hp loads. The case to the left and the 3 on the top right row are the 108gr eldm.

    P's will go and reweigh the HP bullets. They are 1970's left overs from my Dad. I assumed they were 75gr speer HP in with some hornady 75gr HP.
