Thanks for that - I found similar cross-reference charts, but I didn't post them since I was hoping to find something directly from Remington's literature, like I did with CCI.

Of course, if the 7-1/2 *isn't* Remington's small rifle magnum primer, then the obvious questions would be "what's the difference between the 6-1/2 and the 7-1/2, then?" and "which of their primers *is* the small rifle magnum version?"

With all that considered, plus all the third-party information out there, the obvious answer is that the 7-1/2 is the magnum primer, like your post supports.
