I don't typically have a preference however my Model 70 in 270win has a slightly weak firing pin spring so I use either Federal or Remington because they're softer.  The only piece of advice I would give is don't mix brands, all primer brands are not the same, if you want consistent loads you need to keep everything the same.

Thanks for the info n mixing primers. Never thought about different primers firing the powder a little different. I am having problems even finding large rifle primers. Sportsman and Cabelas are always out. I am not paying the extra $20.00 shipping charge to have them shipped.

I have about 800 federal large rifle primers. I am not going to send them in the mail but I would be happy to give you about 500 if you want them. You'll have to come get them up here though.

I could run up there next weekend. I will check a local shop this week also not sure if they have reload stuff.

Ray I was just thinking my truck gets 17mpg so to come up there and back would cost me like $26.00. Are you going to come down for the meet at the end of the month?

Bobcat or Snowman will most likely go. I doubt I can make that. I'll see if I can pass the baton to one of them.
