Beware Federal 202 primer
 

I was looking at some new Federal hulls already primed on the Ballistic Tech. sight yesterday and they listed the primers as Federal 202. I thought maybe it was a misprint. I looked some more and they had them listed in some more hulls. I pulled them up on the internet and sure enough there they were. These new primers are hotter than the old Federals. One article said that you had to lower the powder charge by about 3 grains. They are not on the market yet for reloading the primers yourself. They are only in preprimed hulls. So if you buy any preprimed hulls make sure what you are getting. Don't want to mess up any of these nice old firearms. :crying: Mike

In 10ga I just deprime and use Cheddites.
