Wolf primers

Their good primers.. I have the TulAmmo 5.56M primers.. Wolf and TulAmmo are both the same primer.. What cartridge are you thinking about using the Wolf SRM with???
 
I have used tens of thousands of them. I have not seen one misfire. Maybe I have had good luck, but they seem good to go for me.
 
What is everyone's thoughts on the Wolf smr primers ? Go or no good
I've used them one season in competitive shooting. They worked well. I've chronographed loads with them and there wasn't hardly any difference in spread or results on the target vs 3 different other brands that I tested. I did have some failures with the gold colored ones. My friend gave me a 100 ct sleeve and I experienced my first primer failure in 40 years of reloading with those. I bought 25 bricks of the silver colored ones and I haven't had one failure yet with those. I know there was a bad lot of them. Some of the guy's that I shoot with told me that they were instructed to return them to Powder Valley where they bought them.
 
Doesn't matter soon you won't be able to get them any more due to trade embargos.

I like the Tula SR primers. I have a stock pile that should last me a while.
 
Tula/Wolf SRM primers are all I use when a small rifle primer is called for. I tested 20 shot strings with Tula, CCI and Winchester SRM primers in my .223 and 6 Dasher, keeping all other components and dimensions the same. Velocity ES and SD for the Tula primer strings were all markedly better than the other two, the differences passing the statistical significance test. I realize that is not a comprehensive test but they have worked very well for me in match ammo and hunting ammo applications.
 
The ones that were screwing up on me were lot #9-09. The ones that I bought that I've had zero problems with are lot #8-07.
You know as soon as the lot# was named, a lot of shooters went to their reloading area, including me. Yep, you guessed it. I have 4,000 left of two cases of #9-09 sr-m Wolf labeled primers. Been shooting them in my small primered Lapua Palma brass , 300 Blk.out and 6AR course rifle without a single miss fire. Now that I know they are bad I'll have nothing but trouble. ;)
