SmilerWas wondering if the Federal large rifle 210 Match primer was much different than the standard large rifle 210 primer. I have never tried them and the double price doesn't appeal either.

The only difference I have noticed between a "match" primer and a "non-match" primer, is the same as you have noticed...the price.

They are exactly the same except the match has one more visual inspection. Butch

Precision shooter did a huge artical once called prime on primer I believe. It showed the 210M performed totally different as far as power, and impact. They had some gadget that showed the distance it would push a bullet with the primer alone, and some high speed photography.

Big Country, you are right. Precision Shooting did an article on primers a few years back. It did not compare the match Federal against the regulars, just against other brands. I believe that it said Federals were pretty consistant, but not as hot as far as velocity as the other brands. This is fine for BR shooters. A lot of us are going to Winchester primers as they shoot as well and they haven't gouged us as we have been with the Federals. I am speaking about benchrest short range{100-200 yds.] shooting only. I do not know about primers in other venues. Butch
