Has anyone used the White River Energetics primers yet. I have a source for some large rifle and large rifle magnum primers. I'm not sure how hot these primers are in comparison to other LR magnum primers. Any info would be great.

I hate that these are the type of things I find exciting these days. Excited I am though.
I’ll see if I can order some and run them against CCI 200s. 30 of each with ES, SD, and average velocity should be a start.

Doesn’t look like they sell direct to the consumer so that’s out until I find some.

Samples are here! I'll be testing these next week. The tech guy I spoke with at White River says they are equally hot (if not more) than a Fed 215. I'll test the CCI 250, Fed 215, and WR LRM all together.

This is very interesting. Look forward to your test results. Their web site says they also manufacture smokeless propellant. https://whiteriverenergetics.com/

I think the public would welcome a reliable 215 substitute with open arms.

Not from me, but I was about to use CCI 200s for fireforming a hundred rounds of brass. I can’t get to the reloading table until Monday. If I remember, or y’all remind me Sunday, I will do 50 and 50 and run them all on the Magneto. That’s a big enough sample size to say something. At least for consistency.

Powder Valley has large rifle primers in stock. I guess I’ll give them a try. We need an American company to succeed in making primers. Now everything is foreign owned.

I need no primers so I am not shopping, but the White River large rifle are available at less than 8 cents a pop right now. If they sucked, I am sure we would have seen countless complaints because they've been around for several months now. I have seen ZERO negative comments on them, ever.
If I needed large rifle primers, I'd buy 5000 at the drop of a hat. Same for small rifle and pistol primers too.

I got in 1000 LR Magnum to test. But the main problem is placing an order. I can test them, but if I can't get them, it does me no good.
