Badger M2013 and BR2 primers

[locked&loaded]

Any of you guys with the M2013 short action having issues with BR2's not firing?

I remember the M2008 having problems but thought this may have been fixed with the new action.

I believe using 210M's on the M2008 was the fix. May have to go this route on my 20013.

how much firing pin protrusion do you have, maybe you need a bit more because of the thicker cup on the CCI's?

The firing pin is adjustable as noted above... Write Marty and he will give you the proper specs.

if i remember right it was between .042 and .062", I think mine ended up at .054" But like the other guys have said you may need to dial it out a bit further for a better hit. I'm shooting the Fed 215M, and they are working great.

Mine was set at .54. I talked to Marty and he suggested setting it in a bit. I would have thought out would be the way to go.
He said setting it in increases spring tension and adds to the travel of the firing pin to build momentum.
I also polished the area on the bolt that contacts the trigger to decrease friction during pin travel.

The new protrusion is .47.

I loaded 20 rounds up and all fired without issue using BR2s.
I'll do some shooting tomorrow and see how it goes.

I have 210M's if I need to switch but Marty said the new action has an updated firing pin spring and primer types should not be an issue.

Marty is a class act when it comes to information about their products.
