Sometimes Ill just throw away a case if I put a primer in upside down if it is getting to the end of its usable life anyway.  Other times I have ran it throught he sizer/decapper slowly with glasses on.  Earplugs might not be bad idea either if you are sensitive to loud noise, or you are in a small room.  Rarely they go in wrong, but occasionally they do.  The lee hand primer seems to be the worst about doing this is you pay attention to them when they go in the little trough area.

I've been using Winchester primers for the past 32 years and have loaded thousands and thousands of rounds.  I have not had a single problem with Winchester.  Except lately it is hard to find.  I like the brass color too, it matches the cases.
Progressives are coming for your guns. 
What are you going to do?

Well me, I do not have any guns, gave away or sold them 15 years ago.
