According to CCI, the difference in the mil spec primer and standard is the mil spec has a less sensitive primer mix that also has a higher brisance and a different angle/height on the anvil. They are also not chromed and as mentioned, prevents slam fires from floating firing pins.
Do you have a reference for that?
Everything I have seen is that the only difference is the anvil to provide a bit more space between the cup and anvil.
And that the primer compound and amount is the same between the two.
