Hey guys, how goes it? Got a couple quick questions for ya.

I know how the reload guides tell you not to use a different bullet than they use in their info even though it is the same weight (such as using a Speer 150 instead of a Nosler 150)? Is this true, or are they just trying to cover themselves? Would really like to know.

Also, can you substitute a hotter primer with one that isn't as hot(such as replacing a magnum Fed 215 with a not as hot magnum CCI) without changing the load any? Thanks a lot!-Ben
