THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
Noticed that they were for sale at a decent price. They beat the CCI stuff pricewise hands down.

Anyone ever use them and what have you found as far as dependability?

PM Mr Ben, he's used a lot of them and had good results. He can give you more details on what's what.

I'll talk to him tomorrow and then dump it if he asks, he usually posts here and passes it on. Ben's a great guy and also loads ammo, I know plenty of guys here have bought from him. His business is RSR Ammunition and prices are better then most out there.

Have shot 200 - 300 of them and have been happy with them. Ordered 500 and have loaded most of them and happy enough that I ordered 1K more.

Do they still have issues with H-335?

If LAV promotes using the slide lock/release to chamber a round after a mag change, then he should be ignored.-MP0117

H335 isn't a .50cal powder, do you know someone that's tried to use it as such?

Personally, the .50cal Tula primers have been working fine with the VV20N29, H50BMG, US869, WC867, WC859, IMR5010, and WC860 powders I've tried them with. Ammo was fired in both a Serbu BFG-50 and M2HB beltfed.

I didn't see this was the .50 forum. I know there were past problems with the Tula Primers and 335 in .223 loads.

Quite a few, however never from the primer usually forget how many are in the mag and fire on a empty chamber.

I've reloaded around 30 rounds w/ 750 amax, 215gr 8700 in LC brass. First outing went great, accurate and no issues. Next time out I had two click-bangs, or very short hangfires. As in half a second between click and bang. Hopefully this won't continue. Since my AR50 is so heavy, they were still accurate shots, just unnerving.

I might start a new thread with this same message just to see if anyone else has experienced this.
