So I had some help prepping primer pockets (girlfriend). She got a bit carried away chamfering the pocket. The primer is slightly exposed on the sides and it sits .0055” below the base of the brass. Am I ok here. This is new brass I am prepping for load development. It does not look like it cut into the flash hole area at all. I just miked the depth because it looked strange.

LoL I think it should be fine. Ive had the enlisted help of a 3 year old painting inside the house the past few days.... I feel your pain. I limit his help while reloading to picking brass out of the tumbler and pulling the handle on the press.

It is a little excessive, but it will work fine. The primer area might over flow into the voided area some. And it could wear out the primer pocket area a little quicker.

Thanks for the input guys. I was concerned about load development and consistency with these vs my other brass. So nice you all feel like it’s good I’m going to roll on.

Just for you Buzz. not hard to see why she was a little aggressive on the primer pocket
Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting.......holy kaka.....What a Ride!
