[QUOTE="okotoks, post: 467773, member: 29188"] I am loading for 3 rifles 300WSM 22-150 260REM With H-380 do I have to always use a Magnum primer some data says yes but Hogden doesn't mention it. I have reloaded pistol, 45-70 and shotshells for decades but recently started reloading "shouldered" rifle cases. in 22-250 (TC-Encore) I am not a good long range shooter but can keep 10 shots under 1.5 inches I have been using H380 with REM or CCI magnum primers at around 38-39.5 grains the hotter loads require trimming almost every load. above 39.5 grains extraction gets real sticky. (the very Best accuracy is with sticky extractions) The original load data showed Mag primers about 36 grains of Varget FED LR primers don't shoot quite as accurately, groups 10-15% larger but the brass is more stable and no extraction problems I have loaded H4350 in 260 & WSM and was going to try that in 22-250 Thanks from FRIGID Colorado [/QUOTE]
