They haven’t changed the packaging to be like federals . The ones I’ve seen in the store are the same packaging. The speculation with federal was because they started making theirs more sensitive the packaging was made more robust. It will be interesting to see . I know they still make the military grade in small and large rifle . It was always my understanding they were a little tougher than their std primers for guns like the AR and M14 with floating unsprung firing pins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Rich Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Go to the Brownells Website and read their description of CCI primers. I have used them in my revolvers and they seem to work fine. The older CCI's did NOT. And yes the new CCI packaging is different. kR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Federals are huge compared to everyone else’s packaging . I was told the did that for liability’s sake because of the sensitivity of their primers .

Yusta B. Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I believe Federal changed packaging after an explosion/fire in a delivery truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
