My local Gander Mountain only has CCI LR BR Primers in stock instead of CCI LR primers. I assume its ok to substitute? I'll be using them to load 7.62x54R.

From everything I've read the CCI BR primers use the same data their standard primers use. They are supposed to be more reliable and consistent than the other CCI primers which aids in accuracy. I don't use them because the prices are too high and I have nothing that's important enough to need "better" primers.

Your loads should cross-over directly from standard primers to the BR primers according to what's on the CCI site (http://www.cci-ammunition.com/products/primers/primers.aspx?id=27) if that's a worry...

I believe that CCI says the only difference between 200s and LR BRs are a matter of using their most experienced folks.(assembly & QC.)
