    L magnum primers in a 30cal & 6mm

    Hey guys, due to shortage of primers can I use large magnum primers in my 308 & 243?

    I use mag primers for all my large rifle loads .243,7-08,.260 and Creedmoor you may need to drop your load first and check for pressure

    I do it all the time,really only have std primers for subsonic loads.....if you running hot,maybe drop load by a grain,but if normal load is middle of road it SHOULD be fine.
