Call it conjecture, but something tells me Wolf will source appropriate primers for the steel cased grendel. They are a marketing company, and have the ammo made for them to their spec in various factories. People did not like the lacquer coating, so they sourced the polymer coating, etc.
Even if wolf does use russian spec primer cups, the fix is not complex or expensive. The 1 lb heavier hammer spring for mini-30's is every bit of $13. Would I use a heavier hammer spring to be able to shoot $.30 ammo? In a heartbeat, though I predict it will not be needed.
