TZZ 223 Brass Primeing Trouble ?
Has anybody ever had trouble primeing TZZ (IMI) 223 brass ? I am working with some and useing RCBS hand primeing tool several primers tilt to a side and get jammed up I have to take tool apart to clear it. I have removed Mil. primer pocket crimp and checked several peices of brass again. I had the same problem with some Federal 223 brass but I could look at it and see primer pockets off center lay it on table and roll it I could see alot of run out so they are in the scrap bucket.
IMI usually makes good stuff I hope I don't have to scrap it.
I thought it may be my primeing tool but I have no trouble with LC or Win. guess I'll stick with what works for now. Thanks

I had the same trouble. I used the chamfer tool on the primer pocket and that helps.

Primer problems
I agree with the first reply, use a chamfer tool if you are having problems after removing the crimp, however, try this step first before chamfering.
On the RCBS crimp remover, I always turn the case a quarter turn after the first pass and run it through again, seems to help reduce the same problem you are having.

I've been using Sinclair's primer pocket reamer to uniform pockets, so primers seat correctly.

I remove the primer crimp, and then use a K&M primer pocket uniformer on all my gas gun brass. This allows the primer to enter the pocket freely, and maintains a uniform primer depth.
