[QUOTE="Idaho Trecker, post: 1302412, member: 67706"] My very small test did use a small rifle magnum primer and it did look like the depth of the strike was less than the br-4 and 400 but was significantly cratered. I also just had a 6 Dasher built on a Sako 85 Varmint that started life as a 243 and has a large firing pin and I have had no problem. It also hasnt showed the very deep strike marks as the Ruger American Predator has. Talking with my Smith about this and he said it is possible to have issues with pierced primers or blowback into the firing pin hole depending on the rifle.... he also said that lots of people have no problems with this like you have found and kind of depends on each rifle. He said the tighter tolerances of my sako would probably mean there would be less chance of issues with this. [/QUOTE]
