CCI BR-2 Primers
Has anyone tried these for their hunting loads or is any advantage gained so small you would need to be shooting a benchrest rifie? I'm allways looking for improvment. Fuzz

I use them for my varmint rifles. I am not sure if they are better or not.

If you're using Varget, you'll notice some group tightening. In practically every case I'm aware of, CCI BR-2's tightened the groups when Varget was the powder.

Other than with Varget, I can't say that they are any better or worse than the rest of your options.

Thanks for the info.Now I'll see if I can improve on some of my allready good loads. I will start low and work up. Fuzz

They are the primer I use for my 260 Remington. No real reason other than I had 1000 of them. [Razz]

They all go bang, and my loads shoot pretty good.

They're the same burn as the regular 200's. More care is supposidly given to their manufacture. I had some problems with misfires with them and switched to Fed 210M's.
