I noticed some s&b primers now say boxer on them, are these the same as the old s&b just new packaging. been using the old style s&b sp in my 357 and they have worked just fine but the new packaging makes it seam like a different product.

The SKU number is the same. The only difference I've found between old and new S & B primers is the newer ones are in a more modern package.

Hope this helps.

I have been using the old and new ones as well all with great results. Great primers for very cheap.

Anyone notice the new packaging says for pistol, revolver and rifle on the LP and SP primers from S&B? They are super tight in brand new Starline .357, but they slide right into 223/556 cases that have had the pocket swaged to remove the crimp.

I'll bet they added boxers for the USA users who have no idea what they are buying

My experience too with new Starline 38 Special brass. VERY tight with. S&B primers. They go bang just fine though.

Me too except Starline .41 mag nickle plated and W-W primers. They should last forever!
