Powder Valley

Just a quick note to give a well deserved shout out to the People at Powder Valley and UPS. I ordered 10000 Primers, Powder and Cases. The Customer Service was great and the arrival date of my shipment was January 3rd. Got my goodies today at 1100 HRS. They have a special going on where if you buy 10k of TULA Primer they pay Shipping and Hazmat. What a deal!!

I bought those primers at the last gunshow for $18.50 per 1k (out the door).

Yes, but you had to get off of the couch and spend money and time to find them.

Actually someone posted a link a few days back. Forget where....... Called and they said the sale was going till they ran out or the years end.

I took advantage of that too. Plus I added 8lbs of powder under the same hazmat and free shipping. Can't beat that.

I saw that offer also, but I know nothing about Tula primers. I would not like to have 10,000 primers that didn't work for me. I have used Wolf LRM primers when I couldn't find anything else and I guess they did OK. Although as soon as I could get CCI or Winchester LRM primers I went back to them and I still have 1200 of the Wolf left.

Well, if they went BANG, they did OK. What else is a primer supposed to do?

That and fit the cases, and feed in your priming system.

Remington small pistol primers work great, but they seem just a tad "taller" than most others and consequently the last one pushes out the top of my Dillon tubes, not a show stopper, but a bit of a PITA so I won't buy more if anything else is available.

I'm very happy with the Wolf primers, if the Tula are form the same plant I'd be happy to buy 10K of them! Going to check Powder Valley site now.

Went through 1k of the Tula 223 primers. Have no complaints. Ran fine through the 650 and seated easily in mixed brass.

Thats Good to hear since this will be my first experience with them.

They are one and the same (Tula = Wolf).
