I suppose the easy way to test this is to try it against a known load but I'm curious what others have found if they tried it.
I'm looking to reload my 300 win mag and i found I don't have enough magnum primers to do a load test. I have enough non-magnum to go around for a small village though HAHA.
What effects can I expect in using large rifle instead of large rifle magnum primers? I "assume" it's very similar but i've never tested it. I've seen some loads that list magnum primers in non "magnum" rifles though i never tried this combo.
I'm not going to hold anyone liable for actions blah blah blah. Nor should anyone else try it saying they saw it online.. etc etc.
I'm going to wait for magnum primers but what are the realistic potential outcomes? Lower FPS, pipe bomb... unicorns farting rainbows?
