Description

CCI #209 Shotshell Primers deliver consistent ignition for reliable shotgun performance across all shooting conditions. These primers feature CCI's proven 8 series formulation, engineered specifically for shotshell applications requiring dependable ignition energy.

What Makes This Different

The CCI #209 primers utilize a specialized lead styphnate compound that produces more consistent flame temperatures compared to standard shotshell primers. This formulation reduces velocity variations by up to 15% over generic alternatives. The anvil design creates optimal flame distribution for complete powder ignition, even with hard-to-light powders like ball propellants.

Key Features

Lead styphnate priming compound for reliable ignition in all weather conditions
Precision-formed brass cups with exact headspace dimensions
Compatible with all 12, 16, 20, and 28 gauge shotshells
Non-corrosive formulation prevents barrel damage and extends firearm life
Consistent flame temperature reduces velocity spread for improved patterns
Factory-sealed packaging maintains primer integrity during storage
1000-count bulk packaging reduces per-round cost for high-volume reloaders

These primers excel in competitive clay sports where consistent velocities translate to predictable leads and higher scores. Waterfowl hunters benefit from the reliable ignition in cold, wet conditions where standard primers may fail. The consistent burn characteristics make them ideal for precision slug loads where accuracy depends on uniform powder ignition.
