I got same problem CCI must slacking in production.

I too have been looking... I ran across another member on another site saying that he called them to ask what the hold up was? They told him that they have stopped production to work on a few things about the primers that they were not happy with? They did not give him a time frame of when they would start back production?

I called CCI and they told me that they have been on a PRODUCTION HOLD for about 8 months and they had not fore casted date to resume. He said the BR 4 primers were not meeting their "Sensitivity" standards.

So this begets the question "what are you high end competitive shooters using?"

Most everyone has turned to the Russian primers and never looked back....

Beginner here. Which primer is the substitue for the CCI Br-4?

I found them at Gander Mountain, but they take way too much pressure to seat in my 6br Lapua brass. Switched out to some Federals I had and they seated with the amount of force I'm used to. The rifle seems to like them.
If you want the CCIs I have your welcome to them. I only have 1,000.

The only duds I have ever dealt with were BR-4's. That must be part of the problem they are trying to fix. I have over 2000 each of Rem 7 1/2, and WSR, as well as 1000 Fed 205m, so I am covered for a while.

The consistency puzzles me because the CCI200 LR primers have been one of my favorites. They have been dead reliable and accurate.
