Ken, I used Cheddite primers for years without problems. I've read threads where some guys complained about them being softer and firing pins going through and having to replace them after awhile. This is usually with O/Uers where one pin was hitting on a angle. Well, the left barrel on one of my Parker hammer guns and both with a 1873 Remington hammer gun blow primers. So I traded 10,000 Cheddites for 10,000 Winchester primers and took care of the problem. The Fed and Win have a stiffer primer surface and don't have the piercing problem. Just something to keep in mind.
