Tula Small Rifle Primers
I am looking for information/experience.  I bought 15K Tula Small Rifle Primers about 8-10 years ago to use in my ammo for ARs.  They have been great up until this week.  All of a sudden, they seem to be dead (won't fire with really good primer strikes).  Maybe one in ten will fire.  The primers have been stored inside in climate controlled atmosphere.  Any ideas?  I looked online for a Tula web  site but could not find anything.  Does anyone have any experience with Tula primers?

Do not have experience with the SRP, but have used several thousand Tula SPP.  Have only had maybe a half dozen out of the thousands I have reloaded not ignite, about the same as my experience with CCI  Sounds like you got a bad lot.

I have shot about 10,000 of these primers with no issues to date.  This just started.  All 15K are out of the same lot.
