    I regret not buying more of the Wolf and Tula primers when they were $16/k.

    If we would stop pissing in Russias Cheerios, I bet we would see $35/k primers again. Nothing wrong with those...

    I used Unique for 20 ga but there are a lot of good powders. Unique is tough to get now.

    My suggestion is to use a powder that you will also use for pistol or reduced rifle loads.
