CCI 400 CCI Primers are tested and improved on a regular basis. As a result, CCI primers are more sensitive, easier to seat, and more compatible than ever with progressive and automated loading equipment. For the cleanest burn possible, they use modern non-corrosive and non-mercuric initiator mixes. These are the “bread and butter” of reloading, the primers that are most frequently used in reloading formulas. CCI standard primers burn exceptionally cleanly, resulting in cleaner primer pockets and longer intervals between pocket cleaning. For progressive reloaders, this is a major advantage. They’re more sensitive and easier to seat than previous CCI primers, and they’re designed to feed smoothly through automated machinery.. Without a primer, a cartridge is nothing more than scrap metal. Richard Speer founded CCI in order to provide reloaders with a reliable supply of component primers. Primers were CCI’s original product, long before Mini-MagTM, Stinger®, and our other well-known ammunition. CCI 400 primers are highly evolved goods since they are regularly tested and improved. More sensitive, easier to seat, and compatible with progressive and automated loading equipment than ever before, CCI primers are now available. Non-corrosive, non-mercuric initiator mixes have always been utilized in CCI primers. Standard line primers are the most often used primers in reloading recipes, making them the “bread and butter” of the industry. CCI standard primers burn extremely cleanly, resulting in cleaner primer pockets and a longer time between pocket cleanings. For progressive reloaders, this is a major benefit. They are designed to flow smoothly in automated machinery and are more sensitive and easier to seat than previous CCI 400 primers in stock.
