[QUOTE="A1C, post: 2728022, member: 105373"] I have many criterion and shilen barrels and changed several of my cartridges I shoot over to small rifle primer (22, 6, 25 & 6.5 CM) to SRP but worked up loads for 450 primers which I’ve shot thousands of rounds the last couple of years in E Idaho and never a hang fire or anything else. I have read a few places of tests (Tubb being the most informative) with small vs large and it seems the general consensus is that large is better but not by what I would consider any big spread. If I could find large rifle the past couple years with regularity I wouldn’t have changed out my brass and now keep enough 450s on hand I can shoot as much as I want. I have actually experienced the opposite effect in some of my loads but haven’t kept enough control to give any scientific outcome on my loads as I’ve had to work up again with the small primers. But I was able to shrink my ES on one or two (25 creed being one of them) of the CM cases and the others it felt like a wash. [/QUOTE]
