[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 151206, member: 7"] BH... You have given him so many variables to look at, that he has more variables to deal than rifle barrel to test it all. You haven't answered a thing. By his description, the barrel, rifle, cases, etc are already a fixed quantity. He asked about "bullet, powder, primers"... that's all. To have him try all the primers etc, will leave him with a shot out barrel. The cups on Fed primers are much thinner that the others... and they show pressure signs much sooner. The variation in primers is so slight that it takes a bench grade gun to tell the difference, and even then, it's in the hundredths of an inch, or thousandths. I can swap 7-1/2s and BR-4 and see no difference in my Benchrest rifle (a 6mmBR). If his caliber can be had in Lapua or Norma... then he shoots what he has - and for a longrange hunting rifle, the difference between Norma and Winchester is moot! He asked a simple question... finding a good longrange hunting load should NOT be that difficult. . [/QUOTE]
