In Sierras reloading info they list match primers as the component used in their testing for hunting rounds. Would a match primer be safe to use in a hunting round for a .270 in the northeast, it does get cold up here. I have federal LR and LR match primers. I did load some ammo for an OCW test using the match primers, but I'm afraid the data will be useless if I switch them to regular primers. Any input would be nice.
