Always interesting to watch the internets trying to out safety each other.

What is Araldite? I heard rumors of a well known and successful shooter (now deceased) that used to use "Super Glue" (cyanocrylate) on his primers.

Danny .. Araldite = 2 part epoxy resin, 5 minute or 24 hr cure, I don't know what the equivalent is in the U.S.

Mike,
Thanks. I looked briefly at the site linked before. It seems like it must be roughly equivalant in use to what we know as "JB Weld".

During a prone L.R match the R.O , noticed something amiss with one guys ammo. The guy had his rounds stored point down in his ammo box, the primers looked like they were coated in something. The RO pulled a couple of rounds from the guys box and told him to cease fire. The Q & A revealed that the guy had coated the primers with Araldite because the primers were really loose.
No point being stupid unless you can prove it, I guess.

This really is not all that uncommon. People have been gluing primers in loose pockets for about as long as primer pockets have been getting loose.

Yep .. Devcon do a similar product , it used to come in individual tubes but now it is packed in a dual syringe arrangement that is designed to leak, the dang cap never stays on and you end up having to buy more!

If he loaded them for your rifle heck yes. If not then no.

Erud , gluing in primers just does not excite me at all, buying new brass does.

It doesn't really excite me either, but enough people have done it successfully that the thought of it doesn't bother me in the least.
