[QUOTE="dig, post: 601465, member: 26939"] After I work up an accurate load I try a different primer to determine If I may improve, I can honestly say I have never seen significant improvement by a simple primer switch, like over .25 MOA on a a .5 or .75 MOA load. Small improvement yes, ES like Broz said yes witch is important at distance (Thanks, made me think about this a bit more than just accuracy at 100 yards) In the big stuff (magnums with 60 Grns plus powder) I prefer CCI Mag primers to anything else. They have provided the best consistency and are my go to. In the small stuff I also prefer CCI or CCI BR because of the consistancy and packaging. I use a lot of Federal Primers but HATE the packaging, difficult to get into the trays. Again personal experience but I have noticed a difference in BR primers in small rifle but not as significant difference in large rifle. That said I mostly use BR primers anyway and others will have different experience. Find a primer thats readily locally available, cost effective and works and use that for your foundation would be my recommendation. Federal seems to be a go to among the BR guys and the most availible in my market. [/QUOTE]
