155gr palmas

And regarding 8208, I've used from 44.0 to 44.5 grains, with 2156s and Berger 155 Hybrids. (and both Lapua Palma and standard Lapua cases)

Nate,

Thank you for the 8208 information. Naked or coated slugs?

Broncman,
Do you think it was the WLR primers or the bullet that caused the pierced primer. Logically it seem like it must have been the primer cups being soft since the bullet was lighter and therefore should have been a lower pressure load.
 
Same load with cci br primers looked good. Flat but no ejector marks. Memory serves me right the 110 were flatbase and bearing surface was longer with a short nose.
 
Primers are just starting to flatten out. I'm using 205m.
I'm not having to use a magnum primer for the thicker cup. So pressure is acceptable for me
