The Federal GM150M Gold Medal Premium primers deliver the consistent ignition performance that competitive shooters and precision reloaders demand. These small pistol primers feature Federal's premium manufacturing standards, ensuring uniform flame spread and pressure curves that translate directly to improved accuracy and reduced velocity variations in handloaded ammunition.

What Makes This Different

Federal Gold Medal primers undergo additional quality control steps compared to standard primers, including enhanced priming compound consistency and more precise cup dimensions. The manufacturing process maintains tighter tolerances on sensitivity and output, resulting in standard deviations typically 15-20% lower than conventional primers. This consistency becomes critical when developing precision loads for competitive shooting or when maximum accuracy is required.

Key Features

  • Premium priming compound formulation for consistent ignition timing
  • Precision-formed brass cups with uniform wall thickness
  • Enhanced sensitivity control for reliable ignition across temperature ranges
  • Reduced lot-to-lot variation for consistent reloading results
  • Compatible with standard small pistol primer pockets (.175" diameter)
  • Packaged in protective trays to prevent contamination and damage
  • 1000-count bulk packaging for high-volume reloaders
These primers perform consistently across popular handgun calibers including 9mm Luger, .38 Special, .357 Magnum, and .45 ACP when paired with appropriate powder charges. Temperature stability remains excellent from -20°F to 140°F, making them suitable for both indoor competition and outdoor shooting in varying conditions. The uniform ignition characteristics help minimize extreme spread in chronograph testing, contributing to tighter groups downrange.
