Hogdon published some data this year on different primers/powder combos mostly .223 and .308.
My Summary:
Usually pressure goes up with mag primers, but not alway, and not nearly as much as you would think. Sometimes pressure actually goes dow when switching to mag primers. Some mag primers...

I should have both of my builds ready to rock after Christmas. Is there a smith where I could pop in and check the head spacing on these two. I hate spending $120 on two sets that I will most likely only use once.
Last Friday, my personal accountant (wife) informed me that I had enough disposable income to purchase the components for my 6.8 assembly. Yipeee!
Saturday morning I sat down at the computer and started ordering parts. It was a fast process as I had everything booked marked for months.

And a photographer I am not.
I picked up a S&W Lower Thanksgiving and Mr. Brown delivered my parts last night. I was tracking him like NORAD tracking Santa on Christmas eve. I think my daily announcements made my liberal co-workers nervous.
