I'd chew my arm off before I'd give another nickle to that pirate Lester Bruno. His MO is to hoard primers and sit on them until he can get double or in some cases tripple what he paid. He's a profiteer plain and simple.

What is the significance of the 205M primer. I ask because I have a case (5000) that I bought when slick willy was president. I was told at the time H335 needed magnum primers. (223 Remington )

FYI Federal 205 & 205m are the same primer. Reason for the 205 is a visual inspection that they consider a reject 205m.
205's are cheaper and more readily available.
