CCI Primers

[M ammo]

I have used CCI in my Lee Hand press,

They always work very well.

I have heard of , but have not experienced a feeding problem using my Dillon. 650. I just don't use them. They might work just fine.

I have nothing aganst CCI.

I like Winchester Brass and Primers. I get the results I want and I just stick with it.

If it is not broken don’t fix it.

After tens of thousands of rounds of reloads with recently manufactured CCI LP primers, I've had no issues whatsoever. 18# mainspring. I did have two, exactly two rounds of factory CCI Blazer that wouldn't fire out of about 15,000 back when I was shooting factory ammo [ugh].

A friend, however, swears they can be out of round and difficult to use with a feed tube, but that claim needs to be taken with a grain of salt.

In general, I'm not particular when it comes to primers, except that I don't like Federal's packaging. All I could find this summer was Winchester and CCI and not at the same time, so that's what I used.

You friend is correct. The CCI primers do tend to be out of round. I have compaired them with other primers and brass and in some brass they are hard to seat where as the Winchester seat fine with any type brass.
