not required as you are only working with at the most around 45 grains of powder.  NO manual I have seen has called for them more importantly.

Seeing that the WSSM cartridges have case capacities of +/- 55 grains, I use magnum primers in both of my WSSM's(.223 & .25).  I get better and more complete ignition using them.  Lawdog
