    I think they had a few problems with the early ones. They did a good job with taking care of the issue if I remember correct. Then they clearanced them out real cheap, I bought a few. My guess is after the shortage, the demand went way down. I never had one not go bang. However, they don't seat as nice as US made primers. I only use them for plinking.

    How early is this account? I've never heard of an actual user having any problems. David Tubb bought like half a million for his own use.

    I've found they have the lowest SD out of anything I've used.

    Reliability, so long as you're not shooting a 223-specific hard primer in a pistol, is as good as anything (ask me how I know... I don't even consciously tap-rack-bang anymore)

    Also, guess I just learned Widener's doesn't sell powder or primers anymore.. wow.
    Also, internet says Wolf primers are discontinued.. http://forum.accurateshooter.com/thr...imers.3933402/
    Also, just called Wolf and they confirmed they don't offer the primers anymore. Humbug.

    9mm - because they don't make a 9.1mm

    Not sure on the time frame. I read it when I was researching whether or not I wanted a lot of them. And I'n not even sure it wasn't caused by user error. I've had not one problem with them. Though some go in TIGHT. Like they are a tiny bit over sized, or not exactly the right shape. The internet said Obama said NO , they're from Russia.
