I have a couple of 100 count packs of Winchester Staynless primers #116. The box doesn't say what they are for. They look like small pistol or rifle size. Ray

Looked downstairs a bit ago, found an old pack of Winchester Staynless # 116 primers, had to look on the "edge" of the packet to find the info. They are Small Rifle Primers. HTH

Thanks Dan, there's nothing marked on the edge of the packets on mime, Ray
I see the chart is dated 1937. I wonder how old these primers are? Ray
Most of the Remington numbers used in 1937 remain the same today. Winchester went to letters just a few years ago. This borrowed listing seems fairly current, but I wouldn't categorize the Remington 7 1/2 as a "magnum" primer - Remington calls it "Small Rifle BR".
