[QUOTE="rhouser, post: 1113580, member: 18752"] I wanted to see if I could use a BR-2 Primer in my RUM with Retumbo. I loaded 5 200 gr SMK's with 91.5 gr of Retumbo and 5 175 gr SMK's with 91.5 gr of Retumbo. All the 200's fired successfully, but, the last 2 175's definitely hung to the point where I heard/felt the firing pin strike as separate from the bang. My observation: even at 80 degrees, the BR-2 is NOT going to be reliable with Retumbo in my rifle. I am not short of Mag Primers. I was just looking to lower my ES/SD. From reading the posts here, the 215's are the bread and butter for most for the RUM loaders. I have a couple of K of the Win LR MAG primers. Anybody using the Winchester's? thanks to all for a great forum. rch [/QUOTE]
