Can anyone find the primers for sale some place?? There must be a black hole somewhere containing the Fed 205M's....

It's all I shoot in my 6br/ variants. Gave me the lowest ES/SD with the smallest groups.

Tried them with my first 6BR. CCI 450Ms gave me better numbers with 107s/Varget and they grouped the same at 100 so I never looked back.

You loads yer loads and takes yer chances = universal truth. Kinda the fun part.

205M do match well with Varget, maybe not so much with RL15. I saw where CCI400 were being used a lot by Montanas top shooters with H4895.

Until about 2 mos ago, Fed 205M's were available. All of a sudden, they are not. My 6BR and the Dasher prefer CCI 450's.

I like the BR4 because they are thicker cups. I don't want to losè my agg because I blanked a primer. Matt

I have a ton of them, but they seem soft when using in the 6BRX. Went CCI 450s and get great ES and SDs. They work well for me. Russian/Tula also work well. Nice hard cups, and consistent. Caviat, Russians are more than 10 years old.

Not quite. I have several cases that I bought in April 2010 that were manufactured in December 2009.

I have noticed the same in my 6.5x47s. I prefer federal primers with h4350 and the 205s have exactly the same MV, SD and ES of the 205Ms.

 

[Loggins J]

Yes they are softer but they work well I use them with RL 15

I use 205 match primers behind 30 gr Varget,pushing 105 Hybrids.

CCI BR4's shoot better in my Savage Model 12 Target 6mmbr than do the Federal 205's. Used to use the 205's but switched after extensive testing and comparison.

Here's an example of the 205m used in my 6 BR today out to 600 yards. Bullet used is my own testing them at 104 grains instead of 105
