No 210M primers - alternate primers for 6XC?

[OneEyedJack]

What are people using for priming 6XC rounds in the absence of Federal 210Ms? Are plain 210s worthy of loading with H4350, or maybe CCI BR2s?

Either primer you mentioned will light your fire in a 6XC.

I couldn't find 210Ms and used 210s in my .243 with 115DTACs and H4350 and it was identical.

I have had great sucess with win. large rifle and rem 9.5's both
I really didn't find the 210's worth a hoot. in this cal. couldn't get any 210m's. I recently found a case of white box win primers my all time favorite

After trying everything with the exception of the russian primers, the WLR primer gave the lowest ES and SD of them all. This goes for the H-4350 powder as well as my favorite, RL-15.
I hope this helps,

1shot, did you try CCI BR2 primers too? Thanks for the info, I've never tried WLR but will now.

OneEyedJack,
Yes I did. I would need to refer back to my notes to be sure, but I can tell you that large extreme spreads, or low velocity as compared to other primers will make me shelf a primer quicker than anything. I'm thinking it was the ES issue, just not positive. The WLR primer has served me well with both H-4350 and RL-15 in the 6XC.
I hope this helps,
