Given that gun control is now upon us in the form of "If there are no bullets then guns are nothing more than small clubs", many of us have had to make make concessions on things like primers. Choices like pay up to $75 for a thousand or use something we never even heard of. I'd like to hear from those of you who have done the latter, possibly using what I consider to be "off brand" primers. Since CCI, Remington, Federal etc. have gone the way of the Gooney Bird there are some out there that I have never used and I'd like some input before I plunk down a couple of hundred bucks for 5,000 of an unknown (to me) case of primers off GB or where ever I might find them.
Does anybody have any experience with Sellier & Bellot, Tula, Wolf or any others that might be considered non-mainstream but still somewhat available if you're willing to part with the $$$? The majority of my loading is for 45acp but I also load 45 Colt and 44 Special.
Any input would be appreciated.
