Just ingenious.

Necessity is truly the mother of invention.

I've occasionally seen pierced Cheddites in Model 12 Winchester pump guns and A H Fox double-guns, both with overly generous firing pin/hammer tip protrusion. Easily solved by measuring protrusion and modifying to shorten.

I’ve pierced STS , WIN , FED and Cheddarites with Parker hammer guns in 8 , 10 12 and 16 gauges . But to the best of my knowledge I’ve never pierced one with a hammerless gun .

I have gone through about 5K of these and I have 15K more. I think they work great. Your invention is nice but I just dump 1000 or 2000 in a bin and submerse a 100 card in there and move it around a bit and that works too. They're a bit bigger than American primers but thats all I have now so I just commit to the bigger size. Works great with 20/28 gauge and everything I have tried. No misfires yet. I live in warm weather.

I wouldn't dump a large quantity of ANY 209 primer into a bag or bin and try to fill a 10 x 10 tray by putting the empty tray inside and hand moving the primers or shaking the container. Primers are separated in the commercial tray for a reason and the open (anvil) end is separated from the adjacent primer by a plastic barrier. I'm thinking a sympathetic detonation of all the bulk primers in a bag or container is possible - remote possibility as that may be - by static electricity, a loose anvil, primer mix that wasn't properly loaded, or whatever.

Lets think about this for a minute. When you load a MEC for instance, the primer tray drops a primer like 8 inches down a tube and it drops and lands under its own weight. It also takes a hammer strike to make it go off in a shotgun. The most sensitive part of reloading is pressing the primer in a shell, albeit its only one at a time. Putting a card in a bin and my hand putting primers in the holes isn't going to set it off. The box that the primers came in had like 60 of them all loose clacking about in shipping. I live in Hawaii, Static doesn't live here, but your mileage may vary upon location. Like I said your invention is nice and its definitely more organized, I just do it another way.

Just a heads up that Nobelsport 209 primers in 10,000 count boxes are back in stock at CAC Associates here in PA. $480. per box plus tax. One of my friends stopped by yesterday and got primers, powder and other goodies for our shooting gang.

Went this past Weds to Richland Shooters Supply and scored the NS primers at $47/1000, 10 bags of the Heper shot which is the best shot I have ever used, an 8lb 20/28, 8lb Tightwad and 8lb of Clays believe it or not. Should carry me through until spring.

8lbs of Clays, did they have any more?? I would give my first born for 8lbs of clays.

Calm down buddy. No, they didn't have any more and no need to give up any kids but I know where there is another 8lb of Clays. Give me a few days to work on it. No promises but this guy knows what he has and he really doesn't load much anymore.
