I respectfully call BS on that.
I have shot many factory .357s most of which were 158 GR. at many qualifications. Being a scrounger reloader I scrounged the brass I shot and that of many others, used it for years and still have it. I've never seen a primer as flat as the example he pulled. I think the flattest primers I remember were from some Geco brand I bought many years ago, but they weren't anything like as flat as the OP's.

Otherwise I don't claim expert status and the rounds in question may be just fine. But they would scare the **** out of me.
