Smokin Gator SASS #29736 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I just got an email from powder valley. They have Servencio? Spp for $79.99. They let me put 10 in my cart. I didn't get them, was just checking their limits. Never used them before. Just a heads up in case it hasn't already been posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a heads up in case it hasn't already been posted I have some experience with those Argentinian Servicios Adventuras SPP. When I first started using them at monthlies I was getting about 3% failure to fire. Then, at the suggestion of JM Brown, I began seating them using a hand primer and thereafter had no more problems. The issue seems to be that they probably are a little shorter than Federals and so sometimes they don't get seated deep enough using a progressive press. I did compare one SA to one Federal and found the SA was 6/1000" shorter - not a scientifically valid comparison due to a sample size of only one, but I felt no need to go any further with it because seating them firmly with a hand primer did solve the problem. Now they all go bang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Spade Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Last week Federal small pistol were $86 at Target sports, I don't think I would take a chance on iffy primers for $7/1k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no experience with these primers. The problem with a lot of the places with Federals and the other more popular primers, if available they're limiting sales to 1 or maybe 2 thousand. I was surprised that they accepted 10,000. But thst doesn't help if they're not reliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Spade Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Target Sports had a limit of 15,000 last week. Usually Midway has a limit of one or two as does Brownells but Natchez will usually let you get 5k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
