Does anyone see a difference using different primers?

[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2916663, member: 10755"] The primer will show up with tight groups across a wider node and at multiple velocities…the primer that doesn’t like the powder will show mediocre results across the entire string of shots. If you don’t test multiple primers with the same load, you’ll never see the difference. I test 4 primers generally, not always, but I test ‘match grade’ in both standard and magnum, in both standard cartridges and magnum cartridges, my small rifle primer tests are different, I actually only run magnum primers and I test brisance over the pressure trace, hottest are almost always Winchester, but it will swap with Federal enough times that I test each time, CCI are just below the above in brisance. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
