[QUOTE="diriel, post: 623489, member: 26983"] I hear you, if BL C2 works then great :) When I was learning my mentor made very sure that I learned to shoot rain, shine, or snow, and thus BL C2 made my No-Go list pretty quickly. That is just me and my circumstance however. The CFE223 and Alliant Pro2000MR are very close cousins so having the Hodgdon's on hand should get you in the ball park. I would personally use the Win LR primers with this powder as they are an excellent balance of Briscance and consistency, they have a "flame" that is between an Magnum LR and most normal or BR type LR Primers. Essentially the Win LR primers are a fairly well kept secret :) I also like the CCI BR primers pretty good, and of course the excellent Federal 210M and 215M primers. Wolf has been good to me here recently as well, but it is a more mild primer than Win LR so they are used somewhat differently. Good shooting, Gary P.S. Shamblin has a real good write up and test series on CFE by the way, it is in the Rifles Bullets Barrels & Ballistics section. [/QUOTE]
