[QUOTE="rbTanzan, post: 1729966, member: 53978"] I used to be a Fed215Match kind of person because of their recognized heat. But several years ago Fed were not available. From burn tests it appeared that Winchester LRMagnum were the closest hot burn to the Fed215. I've used WinLRM with good results in 500 AccRel and 416Rigby with their over-120grain capacities as well as 375Ruger and 338 WM. They seem practical substitutes to the Fed215. When I get my next 1000-brick I would be happy with either. I also like to use magnum primers with 270Win and with low-engraving-pressure bullets (GSC and Hammer) in 308 or 243. With these I am happy with Rem 9.5M because of the smaller case capacities. [/QUOTE]
