Hi, I've just opened some boxes of said primers that I've recently bought; even if the packaging is identical to those that I've used until now, the primers are not nickel plated but are yellow like brass. Is this a new lot? Are they interchangable? Thanks.

Sounds like a old lot. winchester primers were brass and not plated until about 3-5 years ago.
