Thought you guys might be interested, I shot some .308 handloads yesterday that were made with RWS primers from 1973. Got some decent, under 1/2 MOA groups from 300 yards (WW cases, 748 powder, Nosler 168 J4's). No misfires, they still work!
It always nice to hear any news that reinforces what they all say about about powder and primers lasting indefinately as long as they are stored in a cool dry environment.
