I am unfortunate to have been bitten by the AR bug a few months ago. At current ammo prices I decided it was time to start rolling my own. I have loaded tens of thousands of (mostly pistol) rounds so I know one end of a press from the other. However, I have never loaded for a semi-auto rifle. I was looking on the web for bullets when I found CCI 5.56 Military primers. They are supposed to be "military spec" for sensitivity to help avoid a slamfire. I already have several thousand CCI 400 small rifle primers that I had planned to use. I didn't even know there was such a thing as a mil-spec primer for the AR. Are they really necessary? CCI has always had a reputation for being "hard". Has anyone had any experience using their standard small rifle primers in an AR?
Thanks in advance
