So I labored up my load with my Winchester primers and WOW he wasn't kidding. From the bench I had been acquiring 1/two groups. Now regarding a press release that you simply created stating you can change circumstance manufacturer isn't constantly true. I think it absolutely was handloader mag did an report to the incredibly issue. Although the facet walls are a similar thickness the base can and often are distinctive thicknesses earning the capability kind of. Should your making use of different manufacturers fill the several instances with water and weigh Each individual to ascertain when there is any capability dissimilarities.

I decided to aggregate the load knowledge listed on 6mmBR.com for numerous cartridges, to see how persistently Each and every kind of primer was referenced. I selected 6mmBR.com, for just a several factors:

An actual good diagram of a primer which includes its components is bundled and a short description of primer compounds is additionally included,

Insert to quote Only clearly show this user #four · Jan 4, 2011 I have read content articles in various Gun Journals, and Handloader is one which I particularity belief as being responsible, that making use of a special primer than what is mentioned in a reloading guide, is generally Alright provided that you aren't in the higher boundaries for that powder cost.

Subsequent, take a look at the firing pin dent in your take a look at case. Will probably be fairly deep. Once again, if the primer is unseated and reseated for the duration of live fireplace, the dent will distort. Yes, much more tension will flatten the dent but simply how much the dent is flattened will depend additional within the hardness/thickness of the primer cup than chamber tension. So ... trust in the listed hundreds inside a reliable reloading guide like a Speer or Hornady for chamber strain. They stress take a look at all their loads and in many cases their max masses are never greater than SAAMI specs ... in truth, they are usually really conservative.

The Federal primers are constructed from softer metals and they use a more sensitive priming combination than any one else. (This is why the race gun shooters make use of them, their guns have very mild springs which induce mild primer strikes.)

"But since there is not any "work" carried out to The underside of the cup, it is significantly less affected and remains basically as it arrived with the mill. Nonetheless, Absolutely everyone who reloads has in all probability seasoned a misfire, and found that the firing pin impression to the primer was Significantly smaller than usual.

I suppose if I'd to choose a brand name ... It might be Winchester. They feed just good in my Dillon RL550 Whilst CCIs Really don't. The skirts on CCI primers are merely rough sufficient where they don't favor automated primer feeders and jam. Once i load on my solitary stage RCBS Rockchucker, it does not make much difference.

The man that answered the cell phone realized exactly what was going on, right before I even claimed what primer was getting used.

The small rifle primer quantities above reflects the load info obtainable on 6mmBR.com for the 6mmBR (6BR), plus the 223 Remington and 223 Remington Ackley Enhanced. You could see there are genuinely just three various small rifle primers which were pointed out at the least 10 distinctive times:

If you're on federal large pistol primers no 150 MAX LOAD you will need to still work up. Exact same thing you'll do if you have another large amount of the identical primer. Same thing you should do if you alter one part into your complete reloading equation.

Include to quote Only exhibit this user #five · Dec 2, 2024 I have shot a great deal of CCI ammo in many 9mm guns, under no circumstances a misfire. I do have a couple revolvers which have lowered power springs, I have experienced a misfire on at least one of them working with apart from Federal primers.

Federal manufacturer primers are essentially the most dangerous when used in the Lee tray fed priming systems. It's not to infer that they are inferior, they just are harmful when employed a tray fed tools.

Now what I noticed at once is always that these things seat like butter (I utilize a Lee vehicle prime) when compared to CCI, and immediately after looking through what the final Himself mentioned, I may change over to Feds Sooner or later, whenever they accomplish well.
