Tula/Wolf Large Rifle Primers

Has anyone found them to be 'hotter' than say, the Win, Fed, CCI's, etc.???

In a 6.5 x55 Imp they give me slightly less velocity than a BR-4 using H4831...if that helps. IIRC in the range of 15fps.

In .243 Win with Win brass the Tula large rifle gives very similar to slightly slower velocities than CCI 200 or BR-2 in my rifle. That has been the case with RL-26 and IMR 7977. I have not tested the CCI primers with H-4350 yet, but the Tula primers give me very low es and very nice accuracy with this powder. Hope that helps.

They are close to small rifle primer results in my .308 Palma loads. SD with Wolf SR primers hover around 7-8 fps while Tula LR with the same load reduced by .3 grains shows about 10-12 fps. They are measurably less intense than Federal 210Ms and CCI BR2s for me.

Responses appreciated, guys. RL 26 is the powder i am currently using w/ CCI's. Good results, but looking to improve.
