Anyone ever used these with H335 or Benchmark in the .223 Rem? Widow of a friend of mine gave me 5K this weekend.

I use wolf small rifle magnum alot. BUT I have had some issues with poor ignition with ball powders.

That said they are my go to primer in small rifle cartridges that I am using stick powders in. They work very well with Benchmark, in fact they are my favorite primer with Benchmark, 8208, H322, 4198, Rl10X...............

5000? One way or another I'd MAKE 'em work.

bluedot,

What kind of issues?

My wife and I shot about 300 rounds yesterday out of 2, 223 Kimber's with Benchmark and these primers with no issues. I have shot over 10,000 of them in the last 2 years with no problems and good accuracy.

Both of these Kimber's shoot as well with the Wolf as Remington 7.5's

That's my way of thinking too.

From what I could gather my friend bought them during the first 'Obummer scare'. Unfortunately he never got around to using them. His widow has sold there huge house and is moving into a townhouse. I was invited over to help go thru his stuff and we uncover the primers. Going back later this week to provide some more assistance. Who knows what we might uncover.

If you want "fame appeal", a little known gentleman named Brian Litz loves wolf primers.

Otherwise, yes. H335 & Bl-c(2) are the same (different only by "as-built") and other than the copper cleaner, pretty sure that same recipe is Win 748. Burned mountains of them with wolf primers, in one of my mouse guns.

MuleDeer, I actually had some failure to ignites. When you pulled the bullets you could see that the powder had burned only enough to cause it to change color slightly but had not developed enough pressure to move the bullet.

I switched to 450's as my first choice for all ball powders after that. I had used about a flat of Wolf small rifle magnum primers before that happened but after having about 10 rds failing to ignite out of the next batch of 200 rds I quit using them for the ball powders.

I have went through somewhere around 4 flats of Wolf small rifle magnums and I absolutely use them as my first choice with stick powders and very seldom do they disappoint me, they are my preferred accuracy primer, especially in my 6mm br and 6 mm hagar. I always attributed the failures to the fact that ball powders are a little harder to ignite and the wolf primers seem to be very mild.

Been loading them with 748 and surplus wc846 no doubt 335 will work also

I use them. Very similar to CCI 450.

I hope they work well, I have 21 lbs of WC846 and 5K Wolf small magnum primers

I shoot the wolf and tula SRM primers a bunch with '335 TAC and Benchmark and have had nothing but great results

Anyone tried the S&B primers of any size?

Wolf primers require a stronger firing pin strike then every other primer I've tried. I have a couple of rifles that can't use these primers, as too many of them will misfire. I personally don't plan on buying them again.

Triple shock,
I've used the S&B small rifle primers. They remind me of the Russian primers, a bit on the mild side. They provided very good accuracy and low ES/SD. They were a tight fit in the brass. Good stuff.

Been getting them here in Oregon for $20 per thousand...the S&B primers...

used the Small Rifle, Small Pistol, Large Rifle and Large Pistol...

Tried them due to price...

have bought all I can, where ever I have found them...

excellent primers....

only ones I can comment on are the Magnum Primers, be it rifle, pistol ( small or Large on either)
