CCI BR Primer Question

Was forced to buy 2000 CCI BR Small Rifle primers when I normally use nothing except 205M. Do I need to crush-seat a little harder than normal, as I hear they have harder cups which can potentially cause inconsentcy with the ligher springed BR actions? I haven't shot any competition in quite some time, but I plan on taking my BAT and Nesika-actioned guns for an upcomming Prarie Dog shoot. Do I need to go re-tune my varmint loads, or it it likely I will not see any significant velocity difference when compared to 205Ms? I'll probably put in a quick range session with these new primers, but just wanted to get some opinions. Thanks!
 
I have shot them in a Viper action that had a 19# spring, at the time, with no problems. They worked well with normal seating.
 
I've

Used BR4 and Fed 205 match primers interchangeably in several Pandas, a Kodiak, teddy, BAT, and a RFD at various times over the years and have never had any issues with standard manufacturer springs.
 
Thank you

That's what I figured, but I needed that reassurance, mentally. Thank you.
