R-WESTDyno -
To what Steve said, I'll add "and available". Currently, I'm using W-W WSP's because that's what the local dealer had in stock. Before that, it was CCI 500's.
Don't know that I've ever been able to attribute a good or bad result to brand of small pistol primer, as long as it's seated correctly.

<PaulS>Dyno,
The best primer depends on your weapon and load. I use two faily consistantly because they give consistant results. CCI 500 & 550 and WW WSP. I have had primers make a large difference in group size. I was using Remington primers when working up a load for my .357 and couldn't get the load to group. I switched to CCI 550 with the most accurate load I had found with the Remington primers and H110 - the groups closed up to 3 inches from 6. I continued to work the load back up and found a load that came in at 1.5 inches. The same load with the Remington primers 'patterned' at over 8 inches.
