If you happen to be in Maine, I have a thousand I accidentally bought yesterday.

i would use the regular 215s until you can find the 215m. You probably won't be able to tell the difference.

My chronograph and targets say there is no difference between 210 and 210m, cci 200 and BR2, so just get the regular primers and keep the extra money for bullets

I have run about 30 rounds loaded in a pinch the same way. It was pretty hot outside at the time. Everything shot well and couldnt tell the difference either.

I do my load development with the standard version of a primer, and then test with the same brand equivalent match primers as my final step. At least as often as not, with this development process the match primers make zero difference.

CCI #34 are near magnum in power, made to ignite military ball powder ammunition. They don't say magnum on them, though. So you might have another option and not know it.
