DO NOT USE Remington 6 1/2 primers on anything near 222/223 size. They are specifically for lower pressure 22 calibers and you will get primer piercings and have to get a new firing pin among other problems. Read the note on the box and it will tell you what they are acceptable for.
PM if you want more info.
