I have always used CCI 400's and 450's but they're getting scarce. I can buy 15,000
CCI 41's. How does this compare? I would definitely work up load's as I always do but is the 41 the same brissance as the 400 or 450? I use pretty much H335 and Varget. Thanks for any direction and info Midlength |

Your answer lies here http://www.cci-ammunition.com/products/primers/primers_prod.aspx?id=30 |
| As you will see in the link provided above, in addition to affording some additional protection against slam-fires, the milspec primers also ignite more reliably in cold temps, and produce about as much flame as a Magnum primer of the same size. You WILL need to reduce powder charge a little to obtain the same (safe) MV. |

Quoted:
CCI # 41 is a very good primer, I have used them for years with no problems As stated ubove they are a magnum primer They work very well with Varget With all due respect, the mil-spec primers are NOT Magnum primers. Their flame propagation is like that of Mag primers, but they are constructed so as to reduce the chance of a slam-fire, and their low-temp relaibility is enhanced. A Mag primer is a standard primer with enhanced flame propagation, but minus the other features of the mil-spec primers. |
