Indeed, we live and we learn, don't we? A few months ago I did some digging around on the Internet and found that lots of folks are pleased with Wolf primers. In fact, I saw one fellow say something about how his group had used many thousands of them without a single failure to fire.
I went ahead and bought a few thousand of Wolf Large Pistol primers, and I've since reached the conclusion that those are the last that I will buy. Within the past couple of years of using other brands of primers, I could count on one hand the number of light strikes and failures to fire that I've encountered in shooting right at 17K rounds that I've loaded. With these Wolf Large Pistol, I'm getting at least two or three that fail to fire in a session of shooting only 50 rounds or so. I will pay a little more and get those that I have confidence in the next time I buy primers.
I used to be blue when I saw that I was rapidly running out of primers. Now that I've acquired some, and have loaded some of them, I'm still blue.
