Feral droods against priests are a tough job... I personally am a Priest and I win almost every duel against feral druid so cant tell you much of anything...
I would advice to do the basics... cat form till you get low health then heal (dont let the hp go too low because priest can fear you and do some dmg that will kill you, remember SW: D is always deathly), theres no real trick here just avoid getting hit by spells (move a lot) if you can regen your mana back to full between "heals" then you certainly will win, but never expect your fight to last something less than 5 minutes... it rarely does
now you just need a feral druid advice :P my priest advice is done... try to getting him oom (its hard I know)
PS: Im used to TBC mechanics, havent dueled much in WotLK because only bought it recently, things may have changed in my strat from TBC to WotLK, keep that in mind ;)

Reflective shield will pown your face. You either blow zerker early and hope for RNG, or try to get the priest to blow pain suppression, then heal and attempt a restealth. It's much easier in arena since you actually have LoS, but most priests will just rock you and you have no chance, especially in a duel.
With good RNG, I can kill a priest before they get out of stunlock, or shortly after if they PS. With lowsy RNG and horrible crits, they survive without a batting an eye at you.
Pro tip- you have 2 choices on zerker while in stealth.
1) Pounce>mangle>rake>SR>shred thru some heals>maim at 5cp and try for a kill with SR up longer.
2)(which I normally use in arena)Pounce>mangle>rake>shred spam till pounce is up>maim>mangle>SR>shred spam and hope for some meaty crits and he doesn't trinket and pop a 5cp rip when you have it and just try to keep the dps up.
Assuming my gear or equivalent- With 650+ resil, it will kill 40-50% of the time dependent on RNG if he tries to outlast before maim is up and you keep him from squeezing anything in between pounce and maim. 20% if he trinkets maim early.
Because they put maim on the same DR as bash, it's a much harder fight. Before, you could chew him till you break maim, then bash and get back to nuking him, or cyclone, then have a maim just about ready when he gets out of cyclone or try for a restealth(which you can get away with if you are a Night Elf). But, since maim gets to the point of useless, and 90% of priests will DoT you ASAP, it's a far cry.
