    Guys I work with have good things to say about S&B primers. Once did a group buy of them during a sale.

    I would definitely take them. I have not used them much, but they are harder than many primers so I would use them in ARs as a wee bit more insurance against slam fires.

    I picked some up at Cabelas super cheap. They only had large rifle primers though which is perfect and I’ve been using them for my Yeti testing. I’ll have to get different primers to see a difference but they’ve done alright so far. I’ve had a few not go off but that was on me and improper headspace. For the price I can’t see it hurting to give them a shot!

    I've used thousands of the S&B small rifle primers. They always go bang.

    Yeah, I've loaded and shot pretty many of them and they always worked ok for me too.

    I got some small rifle s&b primer, and use them in my bolt action 300 blackout. So far so good, the rifle shoots great and they have all gone off ( when they are supposed to).

    I've used them in pistols and revolvers. They work great. I wish I could find Wolf primers again though, they were great and real inexpensive.
