[QUOTE="cowboy, post: 3080752, member: 8833"] You are not wrong this time. Years ago Federal was a client of ours and I was in their facility a number of times. I asked years ago what was the difference between a regular primer and an M or match primer. Here’s what the take away was. When Federal first started making the M primer it was a designation that signified “Military” and it had to go through an additional federal mandate to qualify inspection versus a regular primer. The Federal marketing geniuses then redesignated the M to mean match versus military. If this has changed with time I have no personal hands on knowledge , I’ve interchanged regular and match for many years and see no difference of accuracy on paper at distance nor velocity ES or SD differences on the Chrony.
