Saami specifications for small rifle primer pocket depth, is .117 to .123.
I have new Lapua brass that measures between .122 and .128. I will uniform these pockets all to the same size.
My understanding is that the reason to unify the pockets. is so that all are seated at the same depth. As long as the firing pin strikes the primer with enough force, primer depth will not make a difference, as long as they are all the same. How deep is too deep?
