Re: I Solved the primer shortage
I know I kept all those spent primers / anvils for a reason.
Opinions are like anal apertures. They all stink but mine.

Eight minutes to make three primers...I'd better get a move on.

Re: I Solved the primer shortage
I usually do them in batches of 25 to 30. Tedious but rewarding.

Re: I Solved the primer shortage
this piqued my interest and looking at the baggies and ratios it looks like nitrate (caking and ratio), sulfur(yellow color), charcoal or aluminum(dark color) and a 4th ingredient like a chlorate or perchlorate(other white, although seeing another image it looks like a tan color)
i'm very curious what it is supposed to make and how they came up with it.There is no way to make it out alive...

Re: I Solved the primer shortage
So far so good. I have not had any misfires since I figured out the acetone and shellac mixture to soak the compound
