I think it depends a lot on the powder you're using and the temperature setting your shooting in.OK Since my 6BR took a dump I have to rely on my 6.5CM for long range comp to 1200. Any advantage of using small or large or standard or magnum primers for speed or accuracy? Hate to buy stuff that doesn't help. TYIA

I use SRP's with my 6.5CM out to 1115yds. In winter when it's real cold I will use SRP magnums even though the H4350 is not really temp sensitive. I bought them during the shortage and just trying to use them up. I really like match primers because weights are very consistent compared to regular SRP's. I don't notice any real difference though regardless of what primer I use.OK Since my 6BR took a dump I have to rely on my 6.5CM for long range comp to 1200.

I have had good luck with Fed 205M SRPs and H4350, for several 6.5 CM barrels. If problems getting groups I would probably try CCI450 first.OK Since my 6BR took a dump I have to rely on my 6.5CM for long range comp to 1200.
