[QUOTE="randonee, post: 2078759, member: 116638"] I’ve found that using Federal primers helps with the larger primer pocket. I used to use Federal once fired factory brass in my 300 WM. I found I could just get 1 or 2 reloads with Rem primers. I then saw a post somewhere where someone said not all primers are of the same diameter and recommended Federal primers in Federal cases. That worked for me for an additional 2 loads. I then switch brass to get a bit more capacity so I don’t know how many total loads I would have gotten. Had anyone else found Federal primers to be a bit larger in diameter? I’ve wondered about this and have been puzzled. [/QUOTE]
