Remington Primers Officially Gone?
Re: Remington Primers Officially Gone?
From what I understand, Federal makes their own primers in house. Video of ammo being made at their factory.

I didn't even consider Remingtons contribution to the reloading hobby. Only been reloading for two years and only brands of primers i have used are CCI and Federal.

Re: Remington Primers Officially Gone?
MidwayUSA have products listed as discontinued that I could find elsewhere. I would not put much faith in their system. Sometimes it just means a later model or version is coming.
They also have some weird “dead and buried” product pages that would be better off purged from their system entirely.....like the Ruger Old Army which has been gone since 2009.

I have a hard time believing that the new owner of Remington ammo would not get the primer line back working.

Re: Remington Primers Officially Gone?
Vista now owns the CCI, Federal and Remington primer production facilities. Maybe they will stop marketing the Remington primers and just concentrate on the CCI and Federal brands for retail sale. If so, the loss of Remington primers in the market may be made up with an increased supply of CCI and Federal Primers. We'll just have to wait and see....

LGF, you could be right, and would be just fine by me. As I've never used Remington primers.LeverGunFan wrote: ↑Mon Dec 28, 2020 7:04 pmVista now owns the CCI, Federal and Remington primer production facilities.

Mostly CCI & Winchester, a few years back during another shortage I bought a brick of Tula LR primers, and they worked perfectly.
