[QUOTE="4bycamper, post: 327558, member: 17128"] Nice catch. Not everyone will look at changing primers when load testing. As for your question: Both. In my experience H1000 is a SLOW burning powder and wants a hotter primer to get it going. In contrast H4831 burns considerably faster and in a '06 case may be happier with a cooler primer. The 300 WM has a lot of powder to ignite so this should influence your choice. I have often used Federal 210 and RL 22 in my 300WM summer loads and Fed 215 and RL 22 in my 300WM winter loads. If I had chosen Hogden Extreme powder I might not have needed to have summer and winter loads. :D You have asked a really broad question. I have offered a really small response. Happy shooting gun) JM .02 [/QUOTE]
