    Remington 209P primers available in NZ?

    Anyone know anywhere in NZ who stocks these?
    I have some load recipes that make use of them that I would like to try.
    Seems all we can get here are Winchester.

    Can't see how changing primer would make any difference.

    Well I didnt think so either, but they do all vary, Remington were at the "colder" end of the list while Federal are "hotter". Im assuming they must burn faster or something and ignite more powder in the same amount of time.
    The PSI varies wildly if you look at the load data listed on various manufacturers.
