What primers are best for average reloader? I load 223 and 7-08? I read some have harder cups, loose fit, ...... What gives the best overall results. Are all of them equal with no major differences?

I use mainly Winchester WLR

I prefer CCI for metalic cartridges. If you stick with one of the four major brands, CCI, Federal, Remington, Winchester, you can expect reasonable results.

For economy I use Noble Sport primers for my clay target shotshells. Heavy loads for turkey and waterfowl, I buy off the shelf.

What Mule said X2. Mostly I use CCI for smokeless and Federal 215 Magnum primers for BPC.

Kinda like Fords & Chevys some swear by one some swear by the other.
With that said I've used mostly Federals over the years.

I use CCI 400's and they seem to work really well.

Here letely, I've had to use whatever was available. Usually only use CCI myself.
