Better take a very close look at those primers, if they are the new ‘green’ ones, they don’t store as well as the old school ones.

Yes, I got a *lot* of primers when they mandated ‘green’.

Still work well all these years later.

Thanks for the "heads up". In 1999/2000 I was reloading about 1,000 rds per week. After moving to Idaho, I was no longer able to spend 4 or 5 sessions a week at the range. My work schedule and the weather cut my shooting down to 2 or 3 times per year. I still have some old primers. The ones I purchased today are the first new stock since moving. Storage time wasn't an issue in San Diego. Most of what was loaded was fired within a week. Sunday nights with Matt Drudge on the radio and box after box of ammo being reloaded.
