Used To Use Wolf SRM Primers, Now What?

450's give identical velocities to wolf srm in my 223 with 90's. 205's were about 10fps faster.

Good info. I bought 7000 a few years ago cheap. I always figured they were lower quality in some way. I used them for loading AR ammo.

If you want a hard cup primer and have it act similar to a BR-4, I would look at the CCI #41 primer. It is excellent and it was made for the "AR-Type" rifles. I have used them in a .223 I had and they were excellent!

I think Murom Apparatus produced most of those Russian Primers.
I have a large batch of TulAmmo 7.62 Berdan primers that are packed in the same packaging as these Murom primers including the M in a circle logo.

Has anyone tried the Sellier & Bellot primers?

I have been load testing with them recently and they seem pretty decent, groups are not growing anyway.

I have in a 6.5 Creedmoor and they performed as well as BR-2's on target, but IIRC I lost about 25fps velocity. One difference also was I had a few hangfires/misfires in my first set of loads until I seated the primers a little 'harder'; I obviously was underseating them when using the feel I used for the BR-2's.
