Snapping Twig; Thanks for the verification on the powders...I have used both over the years and have found no difference. I heard about the non-magnum primer thing years ago, and if I remember tried it, or a buddy tried it with mixed results....I do remember though that one of the fellas at our club swore by it! I am old, just dont quite remember. Anyway I think that the difference in results that some obtain has to do a lot with the way they reload the cartridges (I turn down my expanders and put a very hefty taper crimp on the case mouth). That may have something to do with it...but, dont know. Anyway, I have always had better accuracy, SD, and a more complete burn with the magnum primers. As long as we are both hitting what we shoot at, then we are in good shape!
