Primer Boo-Boo 6.5 PRC

[4xforfun]

I was priming my new 6.5 PRC Lapua brass and had 2 partially used primer boxes to use up. One was Fed 210 M and the other ended up being Fed 215M. OOPS!! I ended up with about 35 primed with the 215's. Going to start load development this week. Any use even trying the 215's, or punch em and reprime

Going with 153.3 Bergers, H1000, RL26 to start. .240 freebore.

I have and still do use the 215M in my 6.5PRC.
As long as you know which are primed with which you have a good opportunity to see which your rifle prefers.

Since you're doing load development, you're going to see a difference and shouldn't try to looks at them combined for interpreting your load development results. But, You can compare them and note the difference you get between the two primers, both for what you see on paper and by their average velocities.

I only use 215's in my 6.5 PRC and my 25 PRC.

Shoot them and record the differences. Info may come in good later down the road.
