   I happened upon a struck (dud) 303 primer in a case whilst annealing over a gas flame. Impressive bang and a convincing exit of primer. Character building stuff.

   Not so much more sensative but a thinner cup. Typically 17 thou versus SR primers at 20 - 25 thou. I use SP primers in my Hornets and get better results than with SR which have a stronger spark....

   Yep they are 'more sensitive' by design due to the smaller area for spring power to live in, in the frame of a pistol. Priming using the hand primers is a way to prevent pops over priming in a press...

   I have had two bangs but only when priming, never with depriming livies. When it goes and you have a full tube of primers you are expecting more bang for you buck thankfully that didnt happen. But...

   I've deprimed heaps of cases over the years but someone once told me, "every time you do it, expect it to go bang", and I do. Luckily haven't shat my pants yet.......but theres still time

   Same! Take it slow be genteal. I have had no issues at all, way too much Scotch blood to throw them away.

   Maybe if you hunt Lions and Elephants it would pay not to re load them, but for targets etc they will be good to go. As said they seat a little soft due to being already seated once, but if your...

   Spot on. Probably be more relevant now primers are more expensive than illegal drugs.

    Answer from me is yes as I have done exactly that many times, always with commercial, large rifleboxer primers, standard and magnum. Always worn safety specs whilst doing but never had one ignite....

    In terms of your first question: I've tried but found the primers to be a bit loose when seating in another case. Second question: Probably not, but give it a go and let us know.

    Not silly. I've wet primers in cases and they've happily gone bang next morning although the odd one was a tad muted. Same as this nonsense about handling them kills them. Primers are hardy little...

    Another silly question...could you reduce the possibility of ignition by wetting the primer by filling the cases with water and giving them a good shake before depriming?

    I've deprimed my share of modern cases and up around a thousand of milsurp 30-06. The milsurp was exciting, about one in 10 would go off. Mainly due to having to hit them pretty hard to overcome the...

    Ive decapped and reused 2-300 primers with no worries at all. Every single one has fired. Certainly de prime with caution as mentioned above.
