Fiocchi SRP in BR loads?

[OMW57]

DUE TO AVAILABILITY, I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE HERE HAD TRIED THE FIOCCHI SRP PRIMERS IN THEIR BR LOADS YET & HOW DID THEY PERFORM COMPARED TO CCI BR-4 OR FEDERAL 205M?

Here's what I found in an SR primer test in 308 Win 'Palma' brass a few years ago. Fiocchi did very well, but that may not apply to smaller cased cartridges of course.

Generally, I've found the make to be good performers, but my experience is mostly with the LR size having bought several thousands in the UK during a previous period of components shortages.

LAURIE, THANKS FOR THE POST! SOME INTERESTING INFO THERE TO PONDER, I FINALLY GOT TIME TO SIT DOWN & READ IT THROUGH & THINK I MAY TRY SOME FIOCCHI'S TO SEE HOW THEY WORK

I ran them last weekend at 400 metres in my F-Open 6GT rig...they group as well my go-to primer which is Sellier & Bellot. You can watch my first stage here:

I ran test on Monday morning this week for myself and could not see any difference with BR4 in both of my PPC rifles at 100 and 200 yards. Even felt more confident after buying years supply of them.

Don't shoot BR ; but tried them in F-Class .308 , and the velocity was just a touch slower , 15-20 fps than my normal Rem 7-1/2's with the same exact load . Bullet used was a Berger 185 Jugg Target , Lapua SRP Brass.
