bag of new Federal 30-06 cases at Graf's today. 100 primed cases. I'm not familiar with the primer that Federal uses in their bulk-bagged cases. Anyone know?

Since it is Federal, I would surmise that they are using Federal 210 primers. To be candid, however, I was not aware that they provided primed brass. They only list unprimed brass on their web site.
 
I have sent Federal an e-mail. Maybe they'll know something.

Graf's did not indicate that they might have primed the brass. There is a greenish-blue sealant around the primers on the outside of the cases. They are marked FC 3006sprg.

Hum ...

OK, update;
A call to Graf's "tech service" garnered this. Federal offers bulk-primed cases to "dealers only".. They carry a std. Federal LR primer (a 210?).
 
That would be a Federal 210 primer, and the colour indicates they are sealed with Federal's sealant. Fascinating.
