[QUOTE="Lenny Foffa, post: 2458684, member: 100742"] I found some Winchester and Remington LR Mag primers in my cabinet. Once the Federal 215 Mag primers are gone, I will sadly default to those. I suppose I will need to adjust my load to cope with the new primers. Right now it 67.0 grns H 4831SC, in my 270 Weatherby mag, with a 150 Grn ABLR. The Nosler book says 2940fps from a 26-inch barrel. I do the ballistic math using 2900 fps. I do not know what the velocity loss will be , once I switch to the other primers. If need be I can increase the powder charge, since my current load is barley a 90 percent load. Adequate for deer, out to 500 yards. [/QUOTE]
