Brake pedal to the floor 200

I recently replaced a right front caliper that had locked up pistons because the car was pulling to the left. I replaced both calipers while I was at it. I had trouble with the bleeders-- they were leaking even when tightened down. My pedal went all the way to the floor. I used a motive power bleeder first and then tried the pedal method still the pedal was to the floor. Did I ruin the master cylinder? How do you ck that? If the bleeders leak could that be causing the pedal to go to the floor? I mean there is no pedal at all. I returned the calipers and am going to try some other ones. Fluid comes out of the bleeders when you press the pedal even when they are really tight. I dont know where to go with all this can someone pls help before I go even more bonkers. phil
