Has anyone had any experience with swapping primers in 308 Subsonic loads?
I currently have an exceptional 308 subsonic load that uses Hornady 190 grain sub X projectiles, ADI cases, trail Boss powder , and Federal large rifle primers.
1038 FPS and well under one inch groups.
Problem is, I am now out of Federal 210 primers , but I have plenty of CCI 200 large rifle primers .
Has anyone exchanged primers in a subsonic load , if so was there much difference in velocity or accuracy?
Yes, I will test eventually, just wondering if anyone can share any experiences.
Thanks Allan

I find those two primers to be identical performers.

Thanks for the reply Bob.

You were correct Bob.
I tested the loads today, and velocity was within 10 FPS.
