Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 I never use them, sir. Primers that is. Can't address your question. They are just cause loud noise and other issues, like carbon on the brass, dirty bores, create reloading requirements. No, I can't see anything positive about them.

Krazy Kajun Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Our Congress are the ones with backwards primers....need to turn them around and FIRE the lot!!
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 There is a way that they will go off, only one way. If there is a gathering of your wife and her friends or family and for some unexplained reason you happen to have a round with a backwards primer in it and you say "It won't go off." Trust me, it will.
