Got me excited there for a minute thinking it was one of the powders I was looking for.

Today could be a big powder drop day at American Reloading. If you need inexpensive powder stay tuned. It goes super fast once the email goes out. You really need to watch inventory before the email goes out.

In past years, their powder drop day was Fridays around noon. I know it's changing a bit but it still seems to happen around noon.... We wait...

Were these the ones that would work as small rifle primers?

I believe so but I haven't tried them as SRPs. I have loaded 500+ of these in 9mm and .38 spcl with zero problems.

Do you know how they compare to the Servicios y Aventuras SPP? In the 200 SyA I've fired I've had 2 complete duds and at least 5 requiring a second strike.

I don't know the answer to that question but they are selling fast. They had about 120 some cases when I posted the link and now they are down to 30 cases.

I've had good luck with the SAs. I've also had good luck with the seconds in both striker and hammered fired guns with factory springs.

Look at the photos. The back printing, including the pictures/drawings are identical without the UPC code and web link. Pretty certain they're CCI primers made fir NATO ammo.

Thank you for mentioning what day and time the powder is listed (if available). They have good pricing, just need to place the order when stock is available.

If @padraig is right we might get a powder drop pretty soon.
