I currently use CCI 200 rifle primers, would there be any benefit to using the CCI BR style??? Would be used in hunting loads and accuracy loads.

I wouldn't waste BR primers for hunting loads. Save those for precision shooting. I suppose though if you're the type to hunt at extreme ranges using BR primers may give you added confidence which is as important as any edge you might get in your ES, etc. BR primers are tough to find though. I haven't seen large rifle magnum BR primers in years and large rifle come and go quickly.
BR primers are made by virgins, only on Wednesdays and only when there's a full moon. 
From what I've heard, they find the employee who makes the most consistent primers, and make him the designated BR primer guy. That's the difference between BR and normal primers. IMHO not worth the extra money, but if you're trying to shoot cloverleafs at 1000 yds, I guess every little bit counts.

Only way to find out is to try some and compare with your CCI 200 loads. I find that some of my loads improve slightly when I load Fed GMM primers vs standard primers.
