Update
So I ran a few different ladder tests lowering the powder charge by 2 grains. Unfortunately I don't get small velocity spreads without going at least a grain lower in charge. I found a decent node at 59.5 grains. I fired a five round group and found that even with the rounded primers now my rifle still shows a faint ejector mark but the bolt lift was slightly easier.
