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.

How does the primer have such an impact on velocity?

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