Unis Ginex 5.56 vs. Tula 5.56 primers in .223 and .308 loads

[watercam]

Broke down and purchased 5000 Unis Ginex 5.56 NATO spec primers. Ran side by side tests with Tula 5.56 primers as the control:

.223/Berger 80.5 FBs/25gr. Varget/Lapua brass - could find absolutely no difference in ES/SD numbers nor accuracy between the two. Velocity was for all intents and purposes equal.

.308/Sierra 155 Palma/46.4gr. Varget/Lapua SRP brass - again, ran neck and neck with the Tula loads.

I like 'em! Especially at the prices that are being asked. Graf's shipped 5000 to my door for $150.

Hows the diameter of the primer, do they fit as tight as the Russian primers?
I've found the Sellier Belliot primers to shoot fine but are a little undersized I was wondering about the Ginex.
Thanks

If anything they are a tad larger in diameter than the Tulas. My brass has 15+ firings on them and the UG primers were still a tight fit.

My experience with them is with the large rifle variety. About 30-40% of them would not seat even in pockets that would barely hold CCI 200's. I've read similar results to mine using the small rifle variety.

Glad they worked out for you.
