I keep reading about misfires.
I used a tray already, no issues.
Bought 1000 more. Brass cups.
Any pro/con on WLP?

Winchester makes good primers!

New to the ballet world and have some questions.
I'm 28 years old and have just started to learn ballet. I have a few questions. Is it totally unrealistic to expect to someday get a degree in dance if I haven't danced since I was a child?

so you like them? other than the price?
I've never used a particular brand of primers. That being said, unless they don't go bang, I like them. I ever had a Winchester LP primer not go 'bang' so I guess I like them. I do remember WAY back in my mind that Winchester had recalled some primers; unfortunately it was many years ago and the details have faded. I did have to send several thousand back to them for a refund. No problem ..>!!!!!

Actually Cholo, when I run out of my components stash, I will stop shooting centerfire..... and will turn to my .22LR stash for the remainder of my years....
I tried ballet........ pants are too tight..

If you use a Lee Auto Prime (hand held tool) or Auto Prime II (press mounted), I think Lee originally recommended using either CCI or Winchester primers to avoid accidents; up to 100 primers in the tray at a time was apparently ok. Last year I asked them about Fiocchi primers; they hadn't tested Fiocchi (yet?), but mentioned that there are some new recommendations for Winchester primers:
Winchester LP - load no more than 20 primers in the tray
Winchester Magnum SP & LP - no more than 20 primers in the tray
Winchester Magnum SR & LR - no more than 20 primers in the tray
Winchester LR - load no more than 10 primers in the tray
Winchester SP & SR are still ok @ 100 per loading tray
As always, best to play it safe!

I came across some Winchester large pistol primers a couple years ago that I originally purchased in 1989-90. They had been stored indoors in a plastic tub since at least 1994...And, somehow got misplaced, as I have moved a half dozen times since then. I decided to go ahead and use them up, and every last one went BANG!

Whelp, I guess WLP are a good thing.
Back to ballet, this ballet forum:
proves (to me) that there is an alternate universe.
AND I QUOTE: "I used to squat 85kgs on the bar - it didn't really have any affect on my ballet, but I I cut back to 30kgs on the bar as my knees didn't like the heavier weight. With the heavy weight I did the classic squat; with the lighter weight the Hindu squat, where your bum touches your heels and you feet are flat on the ground. My knees hurt less in ballet class and my plies are a bit deeper."
The line about "I did the classic squat; with the lighter weight the Hindu squat, where your bum touches your heels..."
To me, the "CLASSIC SQUAT" part is not what Louie Simmons (RIP) would've described.
I drove back from Orlando yesterday (I didn't, nor would I, do disney) Good 9 hour run that we managed to stretch into 11. Stopped at SOUTH OF THE BORDER for a new extra large sombrero (skin cancer) and the Red Neck Barbecue Lab for a FAT RED NECK SANDWICH (brisket and pulled pork with collards)
here's to Louie, barbecue, sombreros, bullets, and all the other things that make my life enjoyable.

I prefer WLP when I can find them, buy CCI if I cannot. The Winchester primers seem to work well with all loads I use from mild to somewhat wild.
They make up a large portion of what is left of my lifetime supply inventory. I bought most of mine back in the 80's and maybe early 90's. I love it when I open a fresh brick and find that I had put the receipt inside. Most were $9.99 per 1000 but I have found some that I was gouged on with the receipt showing I paid $14.99 per 1000. I have loaded and fired unknown thousands of rounds and never had a primer issue with either Winchester or CCI.

those were the days, huh?
just paid $200 for 2000

Just bought an unopened 4 lb can of Unique - the label says "Hercules" rather than "Alliant", so it's at least 26 years old (likely older). It was priced right, so I figured it was worth the risk, guess we'll see...
