I recently got a pound of Varget. What primers do you all use? Cal. is 22-250. Some readings say Varget is harder to ignite, some not. Thanks

I use a BUNCH of Varget..CCI BR 2 primers in my son`s custom mauser 308, Win SR primers in my 223 REM and 223 Ackley Improved, in my 7x57, and Fed 210 m primers in my 308 Win..
Varget lights just fine any good primer will work

My 22-250 likes WLR or CCI with Varget, and my AR uses CCI 400 with Varget...never had a problem with any of the 3

| I haven't used much Varget, only about 24 pounds. In 22-250 I like the Federal large rifle match, I forget the number.

| Any standard primer will work well with Varget. The hottest being Win standard primers being as hot as some magnum primers.

| Varget is my only rifle powder now, I use the Federal SR and LR (205,210). I even use it in my 45-70 with 210M and have no troubles, and thats a large area of powder.
