Are you talking about short range group?

I used CCI BR4's, N-135 and Fowler 66's in mine when I was shooting group and it was very competitive.

serious short range group shooters do not shoot 6br..they shoot 6ppc////ouch
having said that primer is going to be based on powder.
i shoot 205/205m in 6ppc and 30br

Federal Match. I would try CCI, but they are Unicorns down here. Come to think of it..if we don't get a delivery soon, I'll be using pistol primers.

Federal Match, Winchester, cci 450's. But some of the best shooting I've seen done with a 6BR was with Rem 7 1/2's. JME. WD

Once again, you will only know by testing in your equipment. They shoot every brand made. I have seen primers make more of a difference is ES than I have in group size.

 

[Lefty Trigger]

Greatly depends on the powder used in the load. For me it's mostly Fed 205's or Rem 7 1/2's

 

[rjtfroggy]

For a while now, whatever they can get.
