Right now messing with the damn internet but packing my truck camper getting ready to head to the Dynamite Shoot in Gateway, Co. later today. I have been hand loading steady since age 12, taught by my Dad and Uncle. So, not a newbie by a half century.
My post is the truth, primer went bang. I may experiment with other ways of decommissioning a live primer next week. Afterall, I got too much time.
This thread has been really fun. Thanks John O. for starting it. 8)
You're welcome it is odd to see how this simple question has been "blown" out of porpotions.

John O,
I'm so glad to see you're back to posting again! For a while this morning I was worried that something tragic might have happened with that primer.
/VH said:Well I've done a little of that job hunting. Here's a couple tips you might can use :
1. If you're trying to get on with the government, you should attach a copy of this thread you've got going about the disposal of 1 (one) primer to your resume. That should get you locked in to more offers than you can imagine.
2. If you're trying to get on with an outfit that actually has to produce something tangible, on schedule and within budget; make sure they don't find out about this thread, just tell um you'll go to any length to solve even the simplest issue.

Seat it into a piece of brass, and place brass in appropriate rifle. Place muzzle against the crappy carpet I have on the floor in my loading room and pull the trigger..
