I was prepping some .308 brass of mixed types. I had one that the CCI br-2 primer did not want to go in. No big deal, set that one to the side and moved on. Had a total of four that did not want to let the primer press in. All four were Hornady brass. Everything else was Winchester or Federal. I checked the pocket size and the Hornady was .003 smaller than the others. Has anyone else seen this, or were these just a fluke? Seemed funny that only Hornady had the issue.

Every time I've seen it it's always a benchrest primer. Course I've seen it a grand total of 5 times. Not the answer you wanted deadeyes but that's my experience.
Only hits count.

Haven't used a lot of Hornady brass but Norma and Nosier belted magnum brass has very tight primer pockets. I've started using a primer pocket uniforming tool on all new Norma and Nosier brass because of this and it helps a little.

My Lyman case prep center cuts pockets just right. That’s my approach. After depriming, cleaning, sizing, and length trimming…I install primers with a hand primer. Most of the time a little wiggle and it slides in. But if not, i swag the primer pocket.
