View Thread: Primer hardness

Which of these would have a "harder" primer?
South African 762x51 Nato
Brown Bear 308
Thanks,

I have never seen soft berdan primed 308. I would imagine the brown bear is
military primed as well as the SA.

Any ammo that is berdan primed will be a harder primer than any ammo that is boxer primed.

It's all milspec and for auto loaders,

The diff in hardness would be nominal.... The russian primers, Wolf, I'm reloading/going to reload w/ are hard and recommended for auto loading... Winchester good and CCI 34 and 35... I mix up those CCI primers... Check my math....
