I prime on the press for sake of speed, but the "feel" isn't as good as hand-priming off the press, so I'll have a proud primer every now and again when using A-USA (Armscor) brass.  I mark the primer with red Sharpie, and load only one of them in the mag so it gets chambered first, and ride the slide into battery with muzzle pointed downrange in case of slam fire.  Haven't had one go off yet.  Rather do this then pull them down.  I don't have the guts to try to reseat a high primer on a loaded round. :o

Thanks sparkyv, I had the same thoughts for using up these few rd's, and yes, trying to fix these few primers on live rd's....nope, won't do it : )
