I got good results with 2208 with heavier projectiles, eg tmk 77grain. I have just tried BM2 for 55fmjs and 62fmjs and for the 62 at least I think its looking a bit better MOA but I am still testing. NB BM2 is supposed to be ideal for the 60~70grain range. For 55fmjs 2208 or BM2 seem about the same. From some people's posts like banana 2206H seems to be worth trying for 55gr. So far I think the BM2 meters better than 2208 and its the same price. I need to try BM2 behind SMK 69 and 77gr to see how they go but ADI's factory ready loaded 69gr SMK shot better than my own 69grTMK with 2208 suggesting a different powder might pay dividends.
No, Lapua make both types, I have 400 of the the large rifle primer Lapua 308w match grade. From what I can read a small rifle primer gives a slightly better SD, but it has to be a warm/hot day or it wont work as well and even mis-fire.Quote:

The key word in 7x64's post is "Palma".Quote:

Yes Lapua make casses for large and small primers - but Lapua Palma cases are specific for small rifle primers.

Firstly thanks for all the reply's and opinions guys, bloody awesome.
Was in Dunners for a dirty weekend and in recovery time:P managed to get some ADI 2206H to try and some fedral match grade primers and some CCI primers.
Still really trying to decide on projectiles, way over thinking it.
Funny / stupid thing is I shot a PB last weekend with dirty old Hornady 55sp ammo of 470yrds ( 420mtrs )
