    Nah haven't shot them yet, Hopefully next time I'm home.

    Nah Just got advised to use Mag primers with that powder to help it burn better but I did I think 15 at max.

    I just reread ur post and yes that would be safe if you worked up to it!! But despite popular beleif a magnum primer wont give you more fps necessarily it will more than likely give you the same max velocity with 1gn less powder!!

    Some testing I did with 7mm Rem Mag the LR primers gave better velocity than LRM primers with the same load [AR 2209 ] +80 fps.
