I am getting ready for the season and I would like to have some extra primers on hand. I have never heard of this brand, apparently french. Are they good to go? I usually use Winchester but in my area they are hard to find.

Older manufactured Cheddites yes, not current production. Cheddite is making them with same dimensions as Win 209 etc.

I’ve loaded 10,000 in the past year. No issues on primer pockets.

Not a huge problem depending on how simple it is to replace the pins. You can tell it’s happening because the dimple is carboned up.
