H Richard pretty well said it. Federal primers are at least as good as any others on the market, and better than most. I have been loading for over 50 years and 1 million rounds, and as a result have developed some pretty strong preferences as a result of personal experience. Federal first, Winchester second, CCI probably third, Remington large primers next, and foreign brands only if nothing else was available and I was extremely desperate! No, you didn't "screw up".

Anyone can crush any brand of primers be being inattentive and heavy-handed, it isn't ever the fault of the primer any more than it is the fault of the screw or nut when someone not paying attention gets it cross-threaded and destroys the fastener by trying to force things!
