[QUOTE="Reloader222, post: 1576544, member: 25295"] Alibiivi - In more than 30 years of reloading I never had any misfire from any Federal primers, but from other brands I had some in my .357Mag Marlin Rifle. Generally Federal primer's cups are softer than other brands and would ignite much easier with weaker firing pin springs. In general - Remember that Federal Primers is regarded as a hotter primers when compared with other primers brands - so when changing from Standard 210 primers to 215Magnum primers you need to reduce the load definitely with a minimum 2% and use a chrono to compare. This is the general rule with all brands of primers. [/QUOTE]
