[QUOTE="wc872, post: 874588, member: 5923"] I know of no way to determine the optimal combination without shooting the different combos. Yes, I have had loads that I have tried using magnum primers in that I deemed too hot for me. I have never gone from a Magnum primer to a standard & had any pressure signs however. Folks have said that they were having great success using standard Fed 210M primers instead of Fed 215M's in the 300 Norma Mag family of cartridges. In my rifles the 210M's were absolutely terrible. You would have thought that the barrel was total junk! Nope, not junk I just tried what others said worked for them. The moral of the story. Firearms can't read & don't know what they are supposed to do. Just put holes in targets until you are happy. On initial load testing I only load 4 cartridges per combination. Lots of times I can't string 3 shoots together so I have the 4th one there just in case. If I get lucky & the first 3 are good strong shoots then I have a physical example so that I can exactly duplicate it. Semper Fi [/QUOTE]
