[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1933685, member: 2736"] Normally the reason to use magnum primers is to ignite huge amounts of slow burning powder. In some intermediate powder charges (Starting around 60+ grains) they can produce different results than the standard primers. I found in most cases they produced more velocity, but poor Standard Deviations. accuracy issues can be overcome If this occurs but many times consistency suffers. The 6.5 x 47 doesn't need them to get top performance, so it becomes a personal choice. I would recommend using the recommended primer in the loading manuals for best results. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
