Lighter bullets with light crimps have been known to exhibit what you experienced. It even happened to me a couple of times with the C.O.P. 160gr bullets. Also with soft Berry 230gr TMJ bullets before I tossed the rest of them. Were the failures particular to any one or two bullets in the variety you were shooting? I might add that no way in hell, would I be out shooting in -10 degrees unless I was starving. I wimp out around +40 to 50 degrees for a range day. Hunting is a different story. We don't have protracted deer seasons up here. You go when you have to go. Range days are more subjective and comfort on either end of the temperature spectrum, is a key factor the older I get. The WSR primers should have been up to the task, assuming something isn't wrong with them.
