Although I may be talking blasphemy here -- you are better off buying Wolf primers for the same price. In fact, I have found Wolf SR Magnum primers to give me better performance than any small rifle BR, standard, or magnum primer made by a US outfit.

Gene - thanks for the heads-up on the Wolf primers. I bought the #41's for close range (0-25m) playing but after seeing the prices of the Wolf, I may just switch to all one primer. I use Remington 7 1/2 BR primers for my good stuff but I also use good brass. What combination bullet, powder, barrel (length & twist) are you getting good results from the Wolf? I would have never guessed that Wolf would be mentioned in the same sentence as accurate.
thanks
