I’ve seen references to both LR and mag primers for the 10.75x68. The Woodleigh manual does not specify. Perhaps it depends on the powder selected. Any thoughts? Also any recommendations for 5744 practice load data with the 347gr bullet? Thanks in advance.
 
I use magnums for ball powders over 40 grains and extrudes powders over 60 grains.
This has worked for me others may have different experiences.
 
Seems to me, AA has stated standard primers for 5744. It is easily ignited.
 
I reloaded this cartridge with standard primers for years, above all RWS 5341. The case has a low capacity relative to the bigger caliber and the powders used are mostly of the fast-burning sort.

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
