How's the current quality on Winchester primers? A few years ago I had issues with some WLR primers leaking and etching the bolt face, despite having good luck previously. There were tons of complaints online around that time of the same problem. So I quit using that batch and switched to CCI and S&B. I never had any plans to go back to Winchester after that.
However, this latest Sportsman's sale coincided with me needing to get some more primers. Unfortunately they were sold out of the CCI's that I needed, so I ordered some Winchester Small Rifle and Large Pistol primers. I haven't picked them up from the store yet, so I can still cancel my order and I'm really having second thoughts. Did I mess up? I don't want to deal with leaky problems, ruining bolt faces, or any other issues. Should I cancel my order and just pay an extra $7-9 per k to get CCI elsewhere, or have they fixed the quality issues here?
