I usually run Federal primers because they are reputed to be the most sensitive, and therefore least likely to fail to go off. However, I knew a number of people who used the WLP primers in .45 ACP loads in local competition, and they claimed to be satisfied with them. I have used factory primed Winchester .223 brass in match loads, and they've never caused me a problem. I am the source of most of my problems in that arena.
