There is an awful lot of concern over a little bit of primer flow.

Very are very few things in the gun community that will start a debate like reloading techniques.

I shoot an AI AX and these guns are known (as are all AIs) to have very strong firing pins and a lot of firing pin protrusion to ensure they will fire pretty much anything. When I started shooting my 6.5X47 I would have big primer flow and even had a couple of blanked primers. I switched from CCI 400s to CCI BR4s and the problem went away. The BR4s cups are 0.005" thicker than the 400s. Wolf primers are even harder. The same thing happened when the Lapua 6.5 Creed small primer brass came out, a lot of guys had to switch to Rem 7.5s/BR4s as well.
