Anybody here have any experience with Tula brand primers? I know their factory ammo is prone to failures, but AFAIK not primer related. The reason I'm asking is that Tula primers seem to be available in bulk - despite shortages and hoarding - so I thought they may be worth looking into. Do they have any QC issues.

I have not used Tula. I have loaded many thousands of rounds with Wolf with not a problem. From what I have read, the Tula primers work just fine.

They are good. Where did you find them? I need some!

Hey subsonic. AFAIK Powder Valley Inc. still has some Large Rifle (Magnum) primers available. Not exactly what I'm needing, but I'd sleep easier if I had a case or two. Retail shops in my area all have primers, but they've busted the cases open and limit the customer to purchasing only 5 packs. powdervalleyinc.com/

Tula is wolf. I've been using them pretty heavily for a while with no issues.

Tula Small Rifle primers are the only thing available up here. I had never used them prior to latest shortage but have had no issues with them at all (roughly 3000). I would have no problem using them even when others become available again.

Only issue I have had is they seem a little bit larger. A bit more effort to seat. That being said I have no issue with them. I have went through 15-20k of them in large and small pistol. I bought 1k to try in large rifle. I have since went with large magnum pistol in my cast bullet rifle loads with no issues. Jeff
