If your not going to shoot them till next weekend, why don't you e-mail Hodgdon and ask them what they think. They have always answered my questions quickly and with a definitive answer. I always use magnum primers with H110/W296 because that is what my load books call for. It's no secret H110/W296 is hard to ignite and the possibility of a squib by not using magnum primers, altho slight, is always there.

23 gr of H110/W296 is my regular load for my M629 and my Ruger carbine using a 240 gr JHP/JSP or XTP. For hunting I bump it up to 23.5. I tried 24 but it wasn't as accurate for me as 23 and 23.5.
