    Semi-auto Bren piercing primers - any solutions?

    Hi guys,

    Anyone have an idea for a solution to this issue?

    (It is a US civi-legal semi-auto Bren, using the striker system, not an open-bolt Bren.)

    I am using the recommended S&B ammo - Bren is cycling nicely but rupturing the primer.

    Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

    *I'm going to try out some surplus Brit .303 ammo, that has tougher primers, hopefully that is the fix. I'll also try it with some PPU ammo.
