Blemished primers?

[krumfola]

Anyone ever purchased (or even heard of) blemished primers?

 

[mgunderson]

Sold in parts with assembly required?

 

[madmixerman]

No,and I wouldn't buy any.

 

[krumfola]

Yeah, good price per 1000 but I don’t think I’m willing to try them. I’d hate to end up wasting powder because of primers issues.

Not me. Even primers I had to dig out in the previous shortage which were 25 years old looked like new. And there was no special storage done by me over that time. Not abusive but nothing special at all.

is the blemish a rounded dent in the center???

 

[Bill K]

Never heard of them or seen one. What do they look like ?

 

[Bill Norris]

Just as Info. Don't know about blemished but I tried some a few days ago that I had removed sometime back and the loads performed flawlessly with great groups as well.

To me ‘blemish’ means a cosmetic discoloration not physically changed.

Lol. ALL of my primers are slightly blemished after firing…

I have loaded more than a few "tarnished" to a dark brown Winchester LPP that went bang every time and I'm sure that I'll find even more during my next load session.

In my USPSA competition days, most of us shot Winchester small pistol primers. Brass not nickel. There was always different shades in a sleeve. They all worked.
