[QUOTE="Evilsports, post: 2284218, member: 40834"] Thanks for bringing this up. I don't have a good reason. I was guided in my reloading by an older fellow about a decade ago, whose advice I respected. He had suggested that I use magnums on marginal non-magnum loads on account of the potential for our hunting seasons to take place in cold weather. (Saskatchewan Canada). Apparently he felt as though the magnum primers provided some type of ignition edge in harsh conditions. Based on your comment though I've looked into it and it seems like I may have just adopted one of his reloading quirks that wasn't necessarily based on testing. In his defense, he likely adopted the practice framed in anecdotal advice as well. I'll do some of my own testing for sure, it looks like the 30-06 case is typically more cooperative with non-mag primers in this powder weight window. Thanks again. I love the fact that with the help of places like this, reloading errors can quickly be turned into learning. Kevin. [/QUOTE]
