For what it's worth, the favorite primer for top high power rifle competitors are those sold by Wolff that are made in Russia.
I conducted my own primer test of Tula 7.62, supposed to be a mil spec primer, and Wolf.

I tested every primer I had in the 30-06 with 174FMJ's 47.0 grains IMR 4895 and LC62 match cases.

The Russian primers gave me some of my best groups and the Standard Deviations and Extreme Spreads for 10 shot groups were very good.

These primers gave me a little less velocity than the American primers.

I think they are worth trying.

I understand CCI Benchrest have more quality control checks, down to weighing each primer, than any other American primer. I do know a number of excellent shooters who use CCI Benchrest.
