What is a Primer?
A primer, often simply called a primer cap, serves, as the name suggests, for the ignition of the propellant powder in a cartridge. The firing pin, when triggered, mechanically strikes the primer, which contains an initiatory explosive. The ignition flame is then transferred to the propellant, igniting the cartridge. Of course, we also offer all products for primer processing.
Advantages of Reloading - Cost-Effective and Sustainable
Whether for hunting or sports shooting, using our primers for reloading offers significant advantages. Many people immediately think of the cost advantage that reloading with components offers compared to buying machine-made ammunition. While the initial investment in presses and other equipment may be higher, the investment pays off quickly. However, the decisive advantage for many hunters and sports shooters is the increased precision. By making your own ammunition, you can precisely tailor it to your own gun, needs, and purposes. No machine can do this as well as you can. Furthermore, filling your brass with bullets, powder, and primers from our online shop is also very sustainable.

FAQ - Useful Information
What is inside a primer?
A primer contains an initiating explosive that is ignited by the mechanical impact of the firing pin. This explosion triggers the ignition of the propellant powder in the cartridge.
How do primers work?
Primers function through the mechanical action of the firing pin, which ignites the initiating explosive. The resulting flame is then transferred to the propellant, igniting the cartridge.
Are primers ammunition?
Yes, primers are an essential component of ammunition. However, they cannot be used independently as ammunition but serve as the ignition component in cartridges.
Are primers freely available?
Primers can only be sold to individuals who are at least 18 years old. Therefore, proof of age is required before shipping.
Are primers hazardous materials?
Yes, primers are classified as hazardous materials of Class 1.4, so stricter regulations apply for their shipping and sale. International shipping is generally not allowed.
Which primers for which caliber?
Primers can be categorized into three main groups: Boxer, Berdan, and muzzleloader primers. Boxer primers come in small and large sizes for pistol and rifle cartridges and are also available in Magnum versions. Berdan primers do not have their own anvil and are usually set with special tools. Muzzleloader primers are specifically designed for black powder firearms and muzzleloaders.
Which primers for .357 Magnum?
For the .357 Magnum caliber, Small Pistol Magnum primers are typically used. These provide a stronger ignition necessary to ignite the larger amount of propellant in Magnum cartridges.
Which primers for .308 Win?
For the .308 Winchester (7.62x51mm NATO) caliber, Large Rifle primers are used because they are robust and provide reliable ignition for the larger powder charge typical in .308 Win cartridges.
Which primers for 9mm Luger?
For the 9mm Luger caliber, Small Pistol primers are used. These are perfect for the relatively small powder charge in 9mm cartridges and ensure reliable ignition.
