Barnahl Ammunition and Russian Primers

[watercam]

For those who like Russian primers! I contacted Barnahl Ammunition to see if they would be interested in importing Russian primers again. Could not hurt if everyone who likes them sent emails as well. One never knows!

Wasn't the demise of Russian primers due to an embargo put in place at the federal level?

Why would anyone want to buy Russian primers?

Might as well get Chinese primers.

Russian primers from Wolf and Tula have a very low flash point thus helping maximize low ES/SD numbers in match ammo. Have not seen any in some years now due to the above mentioned embargo. Since Barnahl is importing Russian ammo it wouldn't seem to take much to add primers as well.

To my knowledge, yes. Obama at work iirc.

My 6mmbr loves Rusin Wolf SR Mag primers. The us government will not let them in. Down to my last 1000. Then back to the drawing board.

They've reappeared in the UK again under the manufacturer's (Murom) name.

You're all missing the "REAL" point . The Obozo boys did a fantastic job of making American shooters , "feel the pain" , of being part of the under-developed third world . In less than three months , they managed to eliminate the three best competition primers from the U.S. market , and nobody even knew it had happened for almost a year . While the rest of the world loads with Murom , Mag-Tec , or S&B , we have only the American primers available . Which will ; or already has caused some issues , due to having to re-develop loads , as your supplies of the now defunct , and soon to be "illegal" primers become exhausted . Just another small victory for the gun-hating liberals , cause in their tiny little minds , "WE" win to much .

I've been using Wolf Primed 5.56 brass this year... bought a few thousand... Now they're impossible to find and I assume I never will. Really sad.

You've lost Magtech and S&B too in the US? How come?

That is/was out of Taiwan. Pretty good stuff, I just trim to minimum, weight sort it, run it over the mandrel, and load. Results have been respectable. Crimped primers.

S&B was given the bum's rush by the Obozos. Here's a link to a forum member D-4297 (see above) that contacted S&B and got the straight shiite.
What primer for 284 ?

Just one word answer to this one , Laurie .....Obama !
