Someone please tell me my eyes are playing tricks on me. I purchased some Hornady 44mag Factory rounds fired them and they were a blast

Winchester LP
CCI LP
Tula LP

Usually any day at the bench reloading is a great day but having these hang up my Hornady LnL AP was a pain in the
The Hornady seem to be small pistol primer pockets the ones on the bottom worked just fine.
This is what the primer looks like after seating it with a hand primer with two handed force. On the press it won't seat feels like something is going to break. I knew this was dangerous but I had to make sure, I was wearing thick work gloves, eye protection and ear protection when I did this with the hand primer.
