I recently ordered 100 pcs of new Hornady brass from Xcaliber Ammunion that is primed with CCI 450 SR Mag primers. It was $25.00 for 50 pcs. I paid $58.00 and change for the brass plus shipping. I thought that it was a good price considering it is primed with the primers that I use. I pay the same for once fired brass from people that I work with that don't reload.

That's an excellent price for new Hornady brass, especially when they include a tray of primers!

So primed brass has no hazmat fee requirement?

Nope, at least I was ever charged for it.

Has anyone used the CCI 450 primer in their loads?

450's all I have been using, 7 1/2 Remmys been scarce in my travels.

Yeah, I did a search and your posts about the 450 showed up, thanks Al. That's a good price for unprimed brass,

Yes. I have. They are okay. I prefer however to use the CCI #41 small rifle military primers. They are harder which is a good safety precaution in the AR platform and they are hot. I like them very much. My number two go to would be the Winchester WSR primers.

Guess I'll get to try the CCI soon enough... Thanks for all the responses!
