Hi,
Many folks don't, but I give each primer pocket a quick shot w/ a primer pocket cleaning tool before repriming. Most of the time it's just extra exercise, but I do run into a bunch of cases now and then which seem prone to build up residue which could cause a poorly seated primer. I do some rifle cartridges w/ a ram prime on press (mostly those w/ previously crimped primers which can sometimes still be snug), the rest w/ a Lee hand priming tool, and I don't remember the last time I had to double strike one of my handloaded rounds to get it to go off.
Winchester's my primer of choice. And, yes, I've run into a bad run of Winchester primers, back around 1975! As mentioned, it's rare.
And since a Ruger's involved, I've gotta ask if the gun's been detail cleaned and examined for proper functioning prior to use. It wouldn't take much crud to slow down a striker, or shorten its travel, and the only SR45 I've been able to look at up close and personal exhibited Ruger's typical quality control. And, no, that's not a compliment.
