5.45 SAR is cratering primers...why?!
 Author: Will© March 23, 2002 at 23:05:59 
    SAR-2 shooting Wolf 60gr ammo... shot 100 rounds and the
primers are somewhat rounded out, if look at the shot case
from the side. Around the firing pin indention in the
primer there is a more raised "crater looking" protrusion.

Anyone else ever have this problem with a new rifle????????

Is this headspace problems... if so is there too much
room/headspace or not enough headspace?

Firing pin problem?

Is this something I should worry about or just keep on
shooting?

The bolt-face has a crater looking area around the firing
pin hole, unlike most AK bolts I've seen. Is this unique to
the AK-74 bolts or a defect? Could this cause the primer
cratering?

Need help on this!

Thanks!
