On Ammomans website there are Speer Gold Dot 165gr JHP for sale. On the pic of the ammo box the lable says not for law enforcement. Are these Gold Dot seconds or rejects?

Thanks

The primers are harder than PD's will accept them or something.

Or, more specifically, one test-round in that batch was found to be too hard, so they scrap all of them.

I've reloaded for years and it seems that CCI primers are a little harder than others to begin with. I can imagine that if they happened to make a batch of even harder alloy, they could possibly cause misfires with some pistols.
