It’s time for Prime

It’s time for Prime

PRIME recently ended its very public dispute with its one-time supplier, European based RUAG Ammotec, and replaced them with a combination of American companies Peterson Cartridge Company and their partner Spark Munitions.

“Customer feedback on PRIME’s new 6.5 Creedmoor is starting to come in and it’s better than we could have hoped for” said PRIME’s CEO Jim O’Shaughnessy. “The new 130 projectiles developed for PRIME by Sierra kept the same D.O.P.E. Our new 6.5 Creedmoor load is very consistent with our previous product, but we are seeing even lower SD’s, tighter groups, and overall higher customer satisfaction on the American made PRIME.”

PRIME’s 6.5 Creedmoor has been shipping for around 3 weeks now and a bunch of new products are dropping within the next week – with more in the not to distant future.

For 3-Gunners and competition pistol shooters, PRIME has it covered with 147 grain subsonic 9mm that will meet minor power factor. They offer .223 in 55 grain, 75 grain, and 77 grain to give the consumer the ability to find what shoots best through their rifle

For those die-hard Heavy shooters, they’ve rolled out some .45 ACP 230 grain and .308 in two different flavors, 168 and 175 grain.

PRIME Ammunition built their platform on providing extremely accurate match grade ammo to its customers and offering a level of customer service that is not usually seen. Now they are back offering even better product, same customer service, and now, manufactured in the USA. We’ve talked in depth with CEO Jim O’Shaunessey about the direction of the company, products, and future plans. Jim is definitely the type of guy you don’t encounter very often. He truly believes and wants to create a “family” not just a customer base.

In addition to Prime’s customer support, they are a proud supporter of the shooting sports, female and junior shooters. Prime has recently agreed to sponsor the 2019 3GN Nationals taking place October 12-13 at Southern Tactical Range in Holt, Florida.
