Started to reload for my new 270wsm, didn't notice that the Nosler book listed "WLRM" as the primer for the loads, I used fed 210. Nothing blew up , loads were very inconsistent, all over the place.Also my lee dies would not resize the 270wsm cases to fit into my rifle. Sent dies back to Lee. Anyone else have this sizing problem?

Also your inconsistency may have a bit to do with your primer. While the Federal 210 is a good primer it is a standard large rifle primer, and not an overly hot one at that.
It takes a fair bit to ignite 65 -70 grains of slow-burning powder and a hotter spark plug, like the WLRM or Federal 215, may be required to get any sort of consistency in the ignition.

I use Federal 215 primers or the Gold Medal Match primers in my two 270WSM.
No problems what so ever.
