I did a search and as best I can tell this topic hasn't been fully covered?
I purchased a RPR in 6.5 Creedmoor and picked up a bunch of the Lapua that has the small primer pocket. I have done tons of reloading and competition benchrest shooting going back a few years now.
As such, I am aware that changing to a small rifle primer from a large one is going to alter pressures. I searched the web pretty extensively and can't find any Creedmoor specific pressure comparison of load data between the large and small rifle primers. As best I can tell folks are just using the large primer load data and applying that to the Lapua brass?
Anyway, please advise on what you are doing and have discovered with respect to load data, pressures and velocity in the 6.5 Creedmoor between lg and sml rifle primer.
