Wish I could find either one locally. Everyone's stock is gone and they have no idea when it will be replaced. The only primers available around here are Remington. No WSP or CCI 500 to be had.

It was interesting that Wolf had a higher velocity,these are stand lg pistol not magnum,I'm going to start with 16grs of 2400 tomorrow same 2 brands,as you have guessed i've got a LOT of time on my hands:).....

How does the primer have such an impact on velocity?

Re: Wolf vs CCI Lg Pistol Primers
 

The larger the flash form the primer, the faster all the powder burns.

yep.. win primers flew off the shelp. no rems here either.

there was a tray or two of odd magnum cci the other day.. but i grabbed them for a small 'magnum' project..

hope to see some primers at the show this weekend. I'm considering getting a case.. or a few thou anyway. wolf or tula even...

i hate not having reloading supplies on the shelf
