Primers have been .08-.10 per round for most of this decade.

That can make sense if you're doing magnum revolver or precision rifle loads.

That makes no sense whatsoever for 9mm FMJ.

Primers were cheaper in 2005. I tend to overbuy components so I imagine they were cheaper than they were in 2014.

There was denim and T shirt on the block. You might want to look closer before making completely false statements.

I see that now.

Still came up short on a warm day in clear gel.

I bailed and took up reloading when 100 WWBs broke 10 bucks at Walmart.

I bought 5000 small rifle primers for $199.99 shipped about a month and a half ago.

Last time this stuff was being blown out I checked its performance:  not good.

The stuff last time was 108gr and it didn’t do well.

The limited data on this looks decent.  Copper bullets are very often light for caliber just the way it is.

Looks decent. Barely more than ball even if it ends up sucking.

I split 1000 rounds with a buddy haven’t gotten it yet.

This. I bought 60 boxes in 3 different orders when PSA was blowing them out for 6.99 a box. Did the same with 45acp at the same price. I haven't shot it yet, but hopefully they cycle ok.
