The description says this:

Factory Seconds – Nickel Plated – Less than .001 % Low Charge – Causes Misfire (Inert Primer) Use for training ammo only, use with caution and eject any misfires

My question is could a "low charge" Primer cause a squib or will it simply not fire? I wonder if the "low charge" primers could be weeded out before loading them?

I expect every round I load to fire.

These would be a non-starter for me.

In theory it is possible if you are willing to measure and weight every primer. An if it's the primers I think you're talking about, than it could be because they have a thicker cap so you'd need a hard strike fire pin.

I saw these too, thought about it and passed it up. .001% isn't terrible, especially when you could still have 1/1000 misfires in factory ammo, but I'd still rather spend the 2 pennies per round on primers that weren't rejected by manufacturers.

What difference does it make?

Sounds like the public now has access to the very same components used to make the world-famous Gun Show Reloads.

Ok but how about NOW? Your willpower won't hold out forever

There were about 130 cases available when I posted this thread. Currently there are about 40 cases left. If I wait until morning to order, there likely won't be any left. If there are some left maybe it was meant to be.

Don't doubt his determination and ingenuity! Maybe he could super-glue a match-head onto the backside of each primer to give them that extra .001% boost they need?
