So I just found a lot of primers I didn't know I had in shop. I probably have 10,000 primers. That's including 250 primers they are in the box aswell. I don't have a magnum gun though. Also is there a difference between green and black labels they say the sake exact thing except green or back label.

CCI 200, as in standard large rifle? Love em for 308, 260, and other medium capacity short action cartridges. Stopped buying BR-2's and just stick with the 200's now after testing loads with both.
For Long action like the 30-06 and 270, I like Winchester LR.

Used up all my CCI LR primers, my goto brand.

Woohoo now I don't feel bad of using my powder with them. I had been using m210m primers
CCI 200 good-to-go.
Tho I have a hard time believing primers really make much of a difference in accuracy, for anything other than a pure benchrest rifle...

I agree 100%... in fact, when someone tells me that they have to have "_____" primer or their load won't shoot well, I advise them that they're using the wrong powder charge. The right load recipe should not be primer sensitive.

Thank you all. I think that's what I'm going to use for now on.
Even in Benchrest, we had a local shooter post a 400-16X at 300 yards using standard primers. He refuses to use BR primers. As Dan commented, it's a matter of adjusting your powder load to match the conditions. What's more important to BR shooters is to keep good records and select the charge weight that matches the "atmosphere" at the time of the competition.
