As a competitive shooter I go through a lot of primers. Federal will always be my match “go to” choice. But, I thought I’d give these a try after reading mixed reviews. First day, loaded up 300, not one issue in the press. I read people with Glocks were having FTF’s. I didn’t have one, although I shoot a 2011. My dimples were deep and pronounced! I don’t think these are even as hard as CCI’s. Maybe comparable to Winchester. Cheaper alternative for your practice ammo and local matches.
DARRELL (verified owner) –
Haven’t been to the range to try them out, but loaded 50 rds and all went well. Seated just like cci or winchester.

I had three primers out of 140 shots initially.that required a second strike which then ignited. The cups seem to be harder. After making sure to seat primers firmly another 70 rounds had zero misfires. I will not hesitate to purchase these primers again.

I loaded some of them using my normal 9MM load which includes 231 powder and 115 gr. plated bullets. They shot great in my S&W M&P II pistol. No misfires, all strong shots. Will probably buy some more if they are still available.

This is the first time I’ve used these primers. They seem to be on the harder side. My Shadow 2 will require a stronger main spring to insure a first strike ignition. My PDP set off every one without issue.
ryland W. (verified owner) –
excellent service through out all of my purchases.
Joel A. (verified owner) –
Tried these out due to lack of availability & pricing of CCIs & Winchesters that went “bang” 100% of the time out of thousands.
Out of 100 of these, 4 didn’t ignite on the first strike but did the second time around. I saw mixed reviews regarding this issue. It may be because it barely made minimum height specification of 0.115” and needs to be seated a bit deeper or maybe just too hard. These were reloaded on a 550B with the same settings as the other primers that worked reliably.

I’ll be honest, I only bought this (unknown) brand of primers due to the national shortage that’s resulted in no choices whatsoever! I thought I’d take a chance. Well, these primers cycle through my progressive press just as smooth as all the other major brands without any issues at all. I only gave them four stars because they remind me of the early wolf brand primers from Russia. They were a bit less sensitive than other brands and as a consequence, would not go bang in my guns with light triggers. They fire in my revolvers on single action without issue but not double action! This is a major disappointment to me as I do all my revolver work in double action. They do work very well in many of my semi-autos, however. As a point of reference for anyone thinking about purchasing any of these, they work 100 % in my Hi-Power and both my S&W M&P’s but not my Glocks with light triggers! So, as you can see, they are close (like the old wolf primers) and will depend on your firearm. I thought about putting higher power springs in my S&W revolvers but don’t necessarily relish the thought of the heavier trigger pulls. All in all, I really think it will depend on each individual as to whether these are worth the high price tag vs. availability.

I would buy these primers again ,they are excellent, they load perfectly and go off like they should. The company is ISO 9001 which is not easy to get from what I know about that rating and put me very much at ease in ordering these primers. I would recommend these to anyone looking for Small Pistol Primers. I will be ordering these again if Powder Valley keeps them in stock and would love it if they could get Large Pistol Primers from this company also. My order was well packed and arrived with no issues and on time, this was my first order with Powder Valley and will not be my last.

Joseph (verified owner) –
Not being able to later edit a review, makes me want to not bother…..
I have 2 minor issues:
The primers are very tight in their sleeve, and if not careful you can spill quite a few, until you get the hang of it.
These primers do not flip, as well as CCI or even Tula on the primer tray and you will end up having to flip 5 or so of them by hand out of every box of 100.
After running 500 in my Dillon Super 1050, I have not had any issues.
Have not shot any yet. Unfortunate, that if I later experience issues that I can not come back here, and make you aware. That is the only reason that these did not get 5 stars.

William Griffin (verified owner) –

Clark A. (verified owner) –
Just as others have stated these Argentina primer are very hard. Hard enough that I used to lad some hot 357 magnum primers held up to the pressure . Out of 50 rounds only 1 FTF on the first strike but fired on the second strike. In the Glock Gen 3, 3 out of 50 FTF the first time. The Wilson Combat 45ACP, 17 out of 100 FTF on the first strike. The Kimber Raptor II, 45ACP seems to like these out of 100, 0 FTF. They seated just fine with a Forster Co-Ax press. Not sure that I would recommend or buy these again due to the cost versus reliability. I purchased 3000 of them. On another note the Bosnia primers Unis Ginex are great primers I’ve used 3,550 so far with 0 FTR. Unfortunately they were out of stock..

Paul J. (verified owner) –
So far, after 500 rounds shot through various weapons, these primers have not disappointed. The chronograph results are every bit as consistent, and with some loads more consistent, than with CCI-500 primers.
The only minor annoyance is that these primers are somewhat more difficult to orient right-side-up, in ridged primer trays. A pair of flat-bladed tweezers solves that issue.

I loaded 100 of these for 9 mm with Titegroup at 4.2 grains and tested on a GLock19 and a Beretta 92FS. Out of 100, I had about 6-10 that didnt fire. inspecting the primers show that the firing pin did hit the cups. the strikes look to be normal strikes compared to those that fired. They were in no way “light” strikes at all. I re-fired the missed ones and 5 our of the 8 that didn’t go fire, did fire. I am suspecting that there is inconsistent gap between the cup and the anvils. This is not a deal breaker for me since i only plan on using these for plinking and also, the scarcity of reliable primers.
Mitchell Cox (verified owner) –
These primers seat well and seem to be a Winchester replacement. They are easy to set off with no light strikes and velocity and accuracy using them is right on par. I will buy more.

After I purchased these primers and before I received them I researched them on the internet. This is what I found. Primer will be loose due to poor packaging, primers do not want to flip over in primer tray, primers can’t be used on a Dillon 550, primers have a 5 to 10 percent failure rate. This is what I found when I received them. Packaging was so tight I had to cut it open with a pocket knife, primers flip over fine in flip tray, they load fine on a Dillon 550 press. I shot 100 9mm loads out of five different guns that were striker and hammer fired with NO issues! I shot 100 357 loads out of two revolvers with NO issues! Great buy, I would do it again!

Powder valley did it’s job correctly in every aspect. UPS as a shipper was horrible. Box received crushed, received three different shipping dates from UPS. Primers spilled in box. If box wasn’t packaged properly by Powder valley like it was, I’m sure I’d be filing a damage claim. Kudos to Powder valley for a job well done. Maybe perhaps provide shipping options in the future for those of us that don’t wish to deal with certain inept shipping carriers.

Good quality. Primers easily fit in cartridge primer pocket. No hang fires. Primers ignite every time. Can be used with handguns that have trigger jobs that strike the primer lightly. My only concern is that they ignite more like a magnum primer. I recommend you test fire and chronograph prior to assembling your rounds in mass quantity. Otherwise, I highly recommend.
Fred W H. (verified owner) –
Powder Valley is a great company to deal with and I greatly appreciate that they have went to work to find us primers. These are absolutely great primers ,this is my second order of them and will not be my last. I have shot 600 rounds now with these primers and have not had one that has not failed to fire. Now if they can just get some Large pistol primers from this company. Highly recommend these primers.

I got these primers in a few days ago. I loaded 100 rounds of 38 special with 5.7 grains of Accurate # 5; some with 148 grain wad cutters and some with 135 grain flat point. I also loaded 20 rounds of 9 mm Luger, 124 grain flat point and 6.1 grains of Accurate #5. I shot 20 or more of the 38 special shots in 2 different revolvers (both S&W) and about (15) 9 mm in Kahr and S&W semiautomatics. They performed exactly as I would expect. They fired the cartridges just like CCI or other good USA brands. The primer strikes were deeper and more pronounced than CCI that I normally use so they are not hard primers. My conclusion is that these are perfectly good primers and I will continue to use them. I measured 10 of them and the diameters were very consistent. They were easily and consistently pressed into the cases with a hand primer.
I have ordered from Powder Valley before and will continue to do so. They do a good job.

It’s nice to find primers in stock. They’ve been working great with all my reloads. Thanks.
William Feick (verified owner) –
I tested these primers in three different cartridges (38 Special, 357 Magnum, and 9mm Parabellum) with five different powders (Trail Boss, Bluedot, 2400, 231, and Unique). All of the powders ignited perfectly, very consistent and clean. The 38’s and 357’s when fired from S&W Model 13-4 had one misfire during double action fire, otherwise no problems.
While testing the 9mm’s I had repeated problems with misfires out of my Glock 17, but none from my Browning P-35 (Hi-Power). I suspect the primer cups may be a little thick.
Overall I would say they are a good product, especially since they are available for something approaching a reasonable price.

I decided to try these primers, loaded 400 rds, 125 rn, 9mm . and off to the range. They performed and shot as good as federal, & CCI primers. No miss fires. I will use these for practice and local matches.

David V. (verified owner) –
Loaded 100 in 9mm and hit the range with two striker fired pistols and a carbine. All have upgraded triggers. Not ultralight – just better than factory. Think the difference between an M&P Shield 1.0 and a 2.0.
Carbine: 34 rounds 0 failures to fire (FTFs)
Pistol #1: 33 rounds 0 FTFs
Pistol #2: 33 rounds 2 FTFs
One FTF went off on the second try, the other did not on try two, three, or a fourth attempt using pistol #1. The primer strikes for pistol #2 were noticeably shallower and less sharp than with the other guns. Pistol #2 has no history of light strikes with CCI or factory primers.
My experience supports the general consensus that these primers are harder than most. If you are shooting a stock or lightly modified trigger, they should work fine for practice ammo.
They ain’t cheap but, given the current primer situation, this may be the best bargain out there. Thanks Powder Valley!

I’ve only done 100 rounds and no problems with these primers. It was a great product. The packaging was good, they loaded properly into the cases, and I never had an issue firing any of them. I’ve only done a tray of 100 so far but so far I give it a A+.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

These primers have very hard cups and will not work in my race guns. Light strikes. Besides that they are fine.
MIKE DAYTON (verified owner) –
They are available which is good. In my pistols with factory spec hammer springs, they work fine. Pistols with lightened hammer springs have several that call for 2nd or 3rd strikes. I would not use these in a match but for practice or general plinking where time is not an issue, they do a good job.

I purchased 1K. A bit skeptial reading reveiws and watching some videos.
I loaded 100 just to try 50 each in my rifle and pistol. EAA Witness pistol, Hi point carbine rifle. All fired great w/o issue. I have loaded with Lellier & Bellot from Checz Republic w/o issue. For me they are worth the purchase not being able to find primers at local stores. I hate paying four times as much for primers as the last time I loadded .

Bought 8000 of these after reading what seemed to be positive reviews. They load great and are well made. My only issue is the light primer strikes. I put an extended length firing pin in my S&W 686 after experiencing 50% light primer strikes. I am still experiencing roughly 10 light strikes per 100 rounds with a stock mainspring. They are VERY hard.

I used these primers for a few hundred rounds with no issues so I have a few thousand to go through so the jury is still out so I have a dillion 550C some load in the brass Soft and some load with a little push I use Starline brass (hope I didn’t butcher the name to bad) but with that said no other issues

Jonathan Sedlar (verified owner) –
I have had a large percentage of primers that fail to fire. It’s disappointing but these are just for target practice. So the average of 2 or 3 misfires out of 17 isn’t a huge deal. That is 12% to 18% junk parts. Not sure if it is a product failure or if I need to change my process.

I originally used only CCI but when things got tight & you had these it stock I tried them. I occasionally will have a “no fire” but I have a light striker in the Glock and attribute the NFs to that. All in all they feed well, seat well & are available.

Product: SA small pistol primers
Seating: Please note that I seat primers using a hand primer. The SA primers felt a bit harder and sometimes required more force than Winchester, Federal, or Fiocchi primers. However, it was not an issue. My first batch (300 rounds) seated fine. (Docked one star because of hardness.)
Range: Every primer went **bang** the first time – no malfunctions. Ignition seemed consistent, and round performance was on par with cartridges assembled with other primers.
Summary: Will buy again if the price is right.

I have loaded and fired over 2,000 of these now. They do have a harder cup and will give you up to 10% FTF’s in your striker fired guns. Had 3 officers try in Glocks, Sigs and M&P’s, and all experienced same FTF ratios. Yes, a bit harder to seat, yes, a bit challenging to flip in primer tray; yes, very tight packaging of trays.
Recommend these only for hammer fired guns or revolvers. Tell you where they shined?… in my subsonic 300 Blk Out rounds!
