CCi 250's or Fed 215's are my max primer in .30-06or similar cases. WLRM are super hot, Ive used them in 264 WM and 7mm Rem Mag and tended to get better velocities with the Fed's and CCI's.

My reloading manual has 46g of Varget as max - I'm far below it h4350 powder . I think I found the reason - I had turned the necks on these particular cases. Upon examining them, I found that rather than smooth necks, they were "gouged" up considerably. I'm sure they expanded and because of the rough turning job, managed to jam in the chamber causing the difficult extraction. That's one assumption. The other possible cause (problem
