Sounds dead on. Pretty accurate...cheap...soft...easy to get. Even works in the G20 with the KKM 40 barrel.

I worked up some minor/IDPA ESP loads recently and found the primer selection can significantly affect the Standard of Deviation for a load. The table is results taken with my G35 with a Jarvis barrel. All of the loads were shot on the same day so there are no differences in temperature, etc. Everything was loaded on a Dillon 650. The Federal small pistol Mag primers generally delivered a lower SD. I also tried some Federal mag small rifle primers, however, they were less consistent than the either the Fed 100's or Fed 200's. I had never suspected the primer selection would make such a significant difference until I tried this.
