Primer question
Will the switching from "federal large magnum #215 primer, to the federal Gold Medal match 215 primer make a difference in my otherwise exact same loaded round??

Might make a difference in a sub.2" gun but in my MOA rifle, I didn't see it. |
Thanks Bigcountry

215M are just 215's with better QC

The "match" primers are exactly the same primers as the standard grade primers but with a QC difference. The difference is the people that are making the "match" primers have exhibited an ability to produce a higher quality product and only these people produce the "match" grade primers.

Good artical about 10 years ago in extreme accuracy mag or one of those mags. I got it around here somewhere. They showed a significant burn difference with 215M and 215. |
Found the article. Precision shooting Sept 1999 copy. "Short Primer on Primers partII" by ML McPherson. Very detailed article that showed more power in a 210 primer than even a 215 when tested in a jig for moving a wieght. Found that strange. But 215's caused higher velocity and pressure. Also showed significant differences in Primers from 1970 lot compared to 1995 lot. If you ever get a chance, its a good article.

I would like to know the lowdown on this. Federal has kept thier secret close to thier chest. |
I have found match grade primers have cut down on my fliers. Good luck.
