Wolf Primers

Anybody has any experience with them? As usual I hear that they are no good-they are the best thing, they are corrosive - No they are not corrosive, they are hard - no they are fine.

I know price-wise they are cheap.

A lot of guys on Glocktalk use them with great results. I have no personal experience with them. If the primer goes bang, I'm happy.

Didn't know they did primers!!

I'd say that anything modern pretty much has to be non-corrosive tho. For plinking at least - I'll try about anything (cheapskate that I am!).

Price seems good, don't forget that if you order them online, there is a hazardous materials charge that might make it just as cost effective to buy them from a local gun shop that sells reloading equipment. That's what I do. I have a dealer acct with Midway, and they still add $20 to the order if I have 100 or 10K primers, you'd have to order a ton to make it work out.

I'm with Chris, anything made now adays should be non corrosive, their ammo is listed as non corrosive, I imagine they would use the same primers in their ammo that they sell for reloading.

as far as reliability, Only loaded ammo, and about 1K and no failures to go bang, Not one.
