Is there a generally agreed upon order of primer hardness among CCI, Remington, Federal and Winchester? I was led to believe that Remington is the hardest and Federal the softest? So maybe Rem, Win, CCI, Fed?

some info along the lines of what you are asking.
If the pressure is 50,000 psi then the pressure within a .062 primer hole would be 83 psi.
You know, you can do a search on all these factors and come up with lengthy tests and conclusions instead of speculation.

At a rate of 50,000 pounds of force per square inch of area, or 25,000 pounds of force per half of a square inch etc etc.If the pressure inside of a case the instant before the bullet departs is 50,000 psi then it's equal in all directions, no?

......Wilbur meant to type "83 pounds" ??

in the br game. It DOES NOT MATTER.
what matters is what happens on the TARGET.
SO WORK UP A LOAD with each PRIMER and then go shoot the best.
or do what most do , shoot a primer KNOWN to give uniform great results
that tends to be federal small rifle or small rifle match.
specific loads some time work better with a different primer.
an example is the cc450 in 6mm dasher and rl15.
If the pressure is 50,000 psi then the pressure within a .062 primer hole would be 83 psi.
