Primers...Benchrest, Match, Large Rifle and Magnum...

[deerhunter61]

Loading for a couple of Magnum rifles...What is the advantage and/or disadvantage to using Benchrest vs Match vs Large Rifle vs Magnum primers.

I have tried Magnum primers with some of my loads and also I have tried Match primers.

I am relatively new to reloading and am not sure what the differences would be or the effect each would have on the accuracy of a round/group.

Thanks,

Unless you have a match rifle shooting match bullets and are very capable, you will never see the difference in Match primers.

Read the manuals. If they suggest a magnum primer with a certain powder or load, use them, otherwise do not.
