Can we say "primer pocket uniformer"?
Get one from Sinclair and see if there is a brass problem or a problem with your seating process.
No point in guessing when you can see where to look for the problem.

Exactly.
Just three weeks ago, I bought 300 new Remington 30-30 cases to load for my son's rifle. I could NOT seat one primer in any case deeply enough. All were protruding below the bottom of the case. So, I bought Sinclair's large rifle primer pocket uniforming reamer and opened up every primer pocket. I used a hand drill to speed up the process.
After reaming the primer pockets, primers seated perfectly.
This is NOT an issue of using more "force" to seat primers in an undersize primer pocket. It's about doing the job right; seating primers in a correctly sized pocket.
Incidentally, I only bought the Rem 30-30 cases because they were to only ones I could find. I won't be buying any more.
