RE: Primers - which ones?
ORIGINAL: eldeguello ORIGINAL: FastShootingCarts I'm finally getting into reloading (mostly RCBS equipment) and would like suggestions on primers for the following rounds I will be reloading: .22-250, 6mm Remington, .270 Winchester, and 7mm Remington magnum. Thanks. bigcountry "and small rifle for the 22-250." Every .22/250 case I've ever seen uses a Large Rifle size (.210") primer, not a Small Rifle primer........ quote: ORIGINAL: FastShootingCarts "Small Rifle, Large Rifle, Magnum? Which one will best suit the calibers listed above." ALL the cartridges you listed use size .210" (LR diametrer) primers. I don't even use magnums in the 7mm REM., unless for slow ball powders. I use the Federal 215 Magnum primer in the .416 Rigby.... but the rest I stand by. |
RE: Primers - which ones?
I like Federal primers as well. If I have a gun that hits light on the primer, I use Remington. They seem to be a little softer.

RE: Primers - which ones?
I have been using CCI benchrest primers in all my rifle calibers and I'm very happy with the groups I've been getting. Well not in my 45-70,I still use CCI200's in it. I'm not sure just how much difference the primers make as far as the brand goes. They all must have similar compisitions in the priming mixture. The biggest difference could be in the quality control, and that's why I use CCI as I've been doing for 30 something years.
