I do have a comment.......
My go to primer for everything is Federal GM210M and GM215M.
Well my full brick of GM210M was actually empty, 1 partial box within and I couldn't find any. I bought a box of CCI BR2 to do some load testing for my 22-250 Rem. My standard load with the GM210M primer shot in the .5's and with the CCI BR2, my group went .398".
I was forced to change primers and ended up with better accuracy. :lol:

Ditto
I've been using them for years. Only lately have I tried to find Federal 215s and there aren't any so I stuck with the CCI 250 and my 30-378 Wby seem happy at first loading. I'd still like to at least try the Feds.
Good Hunting

CCI BR's is ALL I use short of the Federals in my .300RUM... I can tell you the CCI BR is not enough primer to light the big ones....

Nice shooting. What load are you shooting in your 243 Win?

Thanks for the input.
I have always used Federal primers, but can't seem to find any to purchase.
Guess I will try the CCI brand.
