Set primed empty brass primer down on / case mouth up on something that is ultra flat.

The brass should be stable and not rock / pivot / etc at all.  Basically, if the primer aint seated deep enough and is protruding just a little bit, it'll be wonky.  You can use this as well as the 'finger pad feel' method.

CD jewel cases do pretty well, possibly even an old cd.  Avoid something that might have slight deviations like wood grain etc.  Ya want mirror flat and not warped at all.

Do note that sometimes the case heads of brass do get bent just a lil or something similar that might make this test a little weird... just keep an eye out and use common sense and err on side of safety.
