Wolf primers ok in Dillon 550?

[Fatelvis]

I have heard that Wolf primers are slightly larger than other primers and was wondering if anyone had problems with the large or small feeding in thier 550. Thanks!-

I've used SR in my 550 and LP in the 650 for about three years now; no problems. The size difference is noticeable when seating, but hasn't been an issue for me.

No problems using the K&M hand tool or the old RCBS bench mounted primer, either.

Just finished a batch of .223 using once fired LC cases. Swaged the primer pockets & used Wolf's srp successfully. Primers DID seat a little tightly but not enough to deform them or leave the finished product out of spec in any manner.

Stuff works well in both my 16 and an M'2 carbine.

Great, thank you Guys! Now its time to stock up on 'em while they're cheap!

I did have a seating issue with LPs. We had been using Federals and out of habit I seated the Wolfs the same way. They were not fully seated so I ran them through a hand primer. You just need to be sure to add a little extra effort.
