[QUOTE="baldhunter, post: 2536814, member: 11853"] What weight bullet were you shooting?That's 30-06 charge weights.I have used WLR primers in my 300WSM and compared the velocity between them and WLRM primers.The WLR was about 15fps lower.The only time I had an issue with a standard primer in a Magnum was with a CCI large rifle primer with 68.0grs of Reloader 22 in my 300 Win Mag.I was shooting a light load,fire lapping a rifle.I got a few hang fires and two that failed to fire.I pulled the bullets and the powder was black and sooty,but not one kernel had ignited. That brings up another question.Some powders are probably harder to ignight than others.The WLR Primer is supposed to be one of the hottest primers,so if you have them I'd use them in place of a Magnum primer.
