Variation in ignition will cause variation in performance. You might find that SRP's actually perform better in your particular rifle than the LRP's. The only way to know is to test and compare. Other than that, SRP's having more material in the cartridge base leading to much less of an issue for primer pockets becoming loose. Just keep in mind that SRP's are not as hot as LRP's and could be a problem in cold climate where LRP's would be the better choice.I’m brand new to reloading and I’ve been looking at buying some 6.5 Berger factory ammo since it comes with lapua brass, but it uses srp and wasn’t sure if it causes any difference, lmk what I need to know!
I live in Maryland so it gets kind of cold in the winter but usually around 20-30Variation in ignition will cause variation in performance.

Where you finding Berger 6.5 with SRP? And what bullet in it?I live in Maryland so it gets kind of cold in the winter but usually around 20-30
I just heard the 130otm and other 6.5 brass from them was srp, guess that’s not correctWhere you finding Berger 6.5 with SRP? And what bullet in it?
I have shot a lot of Berger 6.5 CM Hybrid Target ammo and except for 3 boxes...oh, maybe 4-5 years ago...its all been LRP.

-MUCH easier to source. LRP are damn near impossible to find and when you do, they will be cheap winchesters or some shit for $150-200 a brick.
The older ammo was srp the last couple years I have only seen Lrp.I just heard the 130otm and other 6.5 brass from them was srp, guess that’s not correct
