If you can't find maggies...can you locate Winchester LR? They were prepped for the slow ball powders and are a bit hotter. JMHO

What you're describing is hang fires which means your loads are probably light. You probably need to increase the powder charge.

By the way, I use RL-22 in my 7mm Rem. Mag. with regular (Federal 210M) primers with good accuracy and no problems.

I've used standard LR primers on rounds as large as 300 weatherby. Your issue isn't the primers.
