Thread: Winchester primer fail

Unlike , others here on this site , I have 1) No axe to grind & 2 ) have no hidden agenda , ie like I sell a make of primer , and am dising the others .

Had 2 brand new rifles buggered by Fed small rifle primers , so I chose not to use them at ALL .

I use Fed LR Magnum match , no problems so far , and will continue in 300WM & 338LM .

As to the comment as to switching out primers and not working up from scratch , the load I swapped was a mild load , and I saw no need to reduce that .

My std primer for 308 is CCI BR2 , very happy with it , and will keep using it .

Also , just to be clear , I have a number of mates that shoot a lot , and have never had any trouble with Win primers .

Be aware that some people on this forum , are maybe less than truthful ( ie lie ) , if it furthers there business interests .

YEAP , you guessed IT , I donot sell Win primers or CCI primers or Russian primers , OR any primers at all , amagine that .
