Matt Noedel:
Does anyone know what this primer designation means? Its on a 9mm Luger cartrdige from a box of 115 gr UMC. The cartridge is beat up and looks terrible. See the next post for the image

Sorry Attachment is not going as easily as one might think!

Scott Doyle:
I beleive it stands for "Heavy-metal Free" (HF)  or lead-free primer.

They make a lead-free line of UMC ammo.

Mike Scanlan:
Check out Remington/UMC Lead Free ammo with "Lead/Heavy Metal-free primers" .  They use heavy metal free primers in the Disintegrator Plated Frangible ammo.  As I recall, the HF stands for Heavy Free. I don't have any standards to compare to.

David Wright:
How about adding a primer stamp section to the AFTE Headstamp Gallery?

Here's what I could scrounge up...

If you know of others, please post them here.

Thanks,
