Obsolete Primers

[bacarnal]

Just wondering if there are charts or indexes of the old primers. Can't seem to find info on Peters or Western in the manuals I have, even tough they are '80s vintage. Thanks, Bruce.

Thanks. Ran in to a whole grunch of obsolete primers and couldn't tell what they were used for. Regards, Bruce.

"...find info on Peters or Western..." Peters was bought by Remington early in the 20th Century. Western by Winchester, in the 30's, I think it was. Both companies used the names on ammo and components for years. As in Remington-Peters(R-P) and Winchester-Western(WW).
If the primers have been stored properly they'll likely work just fine.
