The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Which manufacturers make "soft" primers vs. "hard" ones?

I've read, but don't have handy, references to certain manufacturers' primers being harder than others. This implies to me that others must be known for being "softer", or at least, not as hard as the hardest ones. Can anyone tell me which makers to look for if looking for "soft" primers?

I'm specifically looking for primers for .44 mag loads.

Thanks in advance,
