gtaylor07 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 That stinks, lowest I've seen and running low.Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njl Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Only issue I've noticed with them is, being brass/copper and not nickel plated, they can build up corrosion. If you load your own carry ammo, you might want to stick with nickel plated primers for that, and use the S&B for practice/match ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naka16 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Has to be better than the wolf primers.. I used some SP about 6 years ago and had no issues. Haven’t seen it on any shelves here since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flatland Shooter Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Came to this thread hoping someone had them on sale again. Picked up a bunch S&B SPP last year at $20 per thousand and now running low. If I have to pay in the $27 range I go with Winchester SPP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech32 Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 I have had good luck with them so far. The only complaint I have is half of them are one way in the package and half of them are flipped the other way in the package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePeanutGallery Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I've used about 5k of the S&B SPP in various guns - no issues whatsoever. They press in very smoothly compared to CCI, at least from my recollection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_B Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Bought a bunch of the S&B primers several years for a very good price. No issues at all with small pistol primers but the small rifle primers are too hard for a handgun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4n2t0 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) S&B along with Fiocchi are great "value" primers. The fact that my Vibra Prime loves feeding them is a bonus. Edited April 9, 2018 by 4n2t0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How have you found the hardness of the Fiocchis? Similar to the S&Bs? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExStreetWalker Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 I first purchased these from Cabela's on a Black Friday sale when they were $15k. I bought 20k. I buy another 5-10K every time they are on sale. Never had one fail to go bang. I've used all four sizes without a problem. Right now I'm shooting around 500 rounds per week, not a lot to some people, but about all my abused body will handle. I mainly shoot .45 and 10mm.
