Hi all. Short question. Any one of you using standard small-rifle primers for Grendel? I know it's more conventional to use better primers, such as match, magnum, and military grade. I usually use BR myself. Like Rem #7 /12. I was wondering if it's a genuine mistake to use regular primers.
On impulse I put CCI 400 primers in 50 new-brass cases since I want to load up just general purpose sight-in, plinking, and maybe as a last ditch, HD ammo. Bullets I'll be using are PPU 120gr HPBTs. These aren't made to the highest precision so I'm not expecting one-hole groups. But they were inexpensive and this is the purpose for which I bought them.
Normally I use these #400s in my 5.56 loads. I just wanted to make sure it's not crazy to use them in average, gen purpose ammo.
