    from what I researched they are fine. A little tight to seat but no issues .

    I got a case of the LRs when Graf's had them on 'clearance'. Have shot, maybe, a hundred rounds in each of three different calibers (.308, .303 Brit, & .30-30) without any issue. For a reasonable price, I'd take another case or two without hesitation.

    Spoke with Graf's retail store this morning. They've got 3K left on the shelf but for OTC sales only.

    I also took advantage when Graf's had Unix Genex LP's on clearance (back when things were normal). They work perfect.

    I also purchased SP, SPM & LP from Graff a couple years ago. As good IMO, as any other brand, more so now that primers are hard to find. Others may see a difference but I’m not that good.
    When substituted for SPs, the SPMs I bought require a solid strike to ignite. They will occasionally FTF in striker fired or light hammer spring pistols.

    I saw these up for grabs earlier this week on Powder Valley’s site but the price was still a higher than I was ready to pay, especially for primers with which I’ve had no prior experience. Good to hear from those who have tried them.

    They are very good, i use them for years.
    The tend to burn a bit hotter than most others.
    Keep in mind to store them dry, since those are mostly military primers, pay a bit more attention to there storage container.

    I never had a problem with them.
    With new cases make the "seeking gap"(sorry forgot the word) in the primer pocket a bit bigger than usual.
    You wont regret this money spend (and saved).

    They where from Bulgaria the eu i tought.

    With best regards Igor.
