Was this brass from the American Eagle line of ammo?

Are the primers crimped?

Crimped primers mean the primer is harder to remove with a press and the primer pocket will need work with a primer pocket reamer or something before you can reprime it. Google for crimped primer vs non crimped primer.

as above, primers are crimped in. just needs a few turns with a chamfer tool (which i can supply), then new primers seat fine after.
