I am just starting to load 40 cal. So when I get to 40 some people say us standard primer others say uses rifle and others say us magnum. They are all the same price just which one would you all recommend. Small rifle for. I pretty much use rifle for all small pistol loads because then I only have 1 primer to keep track of. Your not lighting 20 or 30 grains of powder, just stuff in the grain range - depending on powder.
Some folks note a small difference in the velocity with the use of small rifle vs small pistol primers a bit more with the rifle , but not all, and, in my case, the difference is not large. While many consider small pistol primers of different brands to be virtually identical, a more prudent course would be to work up the load each time you get a new batch of primers, whether the same brand or not.
I personally do not see any need for rifle primers in the For all pistol loading, we're talking semi-auto pistols I use either Winchester or Remington Small or Large pistol standard primers. Next: Pistol Cartridge Basics. Follow UReloader. Pistol primers side by side: 44 magnum large pistol primer and magnum small pistol primer Pistol primer parameters There are a few basic parameters that you need to evaluate when buying primers: Primer size large, small Some cartridges require a large pistol primer 45acp, 44 special, 44 magnum, … while others require a small pistol primer 9mm, 38 special, magnum, ….
Depending on what cartridge you are reloading, you need to buy the proper size primer for that application. Primer type Regular, Magnum, Multi-Purpose The type of primer indicates the overall intensity of the primer flame.
Non-magnum loads such as 38 special only require a small flame to properly ignite the powder charge. Magnum loads require more activation energy since there is a lot more powder to burn. After a shooting spree, they always want to take the guns away from the people who didn't do it. Ditto, LP only! The rules of the range are simple at best, Should you venture in that habitat, Don't cuss a man's dog, be good to the cook, And don't mess with a cowboy's hat.
Yes, I did read the OP. Did you? He asked if he could interchange large rifle with large pistol primers and I told him they were dimensionally different. Apparently you didn't know that. You can load pistol primers in rifle primer cases ,provided the firing pin protrusion is sufficient to fire them.
My brass all takes CCI large rifle primers just fine and that is what I have always used. What planet are you guys on? And yeah, I have used LP primers on occasion when I was playing around with loads you'd have to have an awful short firing pin to have any trouble with LP primers , but the LR's fit just fine. I always use large pistol primers, cuz thats what the book says to use. Large pistol primers as rifle primers are taller and will not sit below the case head.
I read the OP's question.. The shortage there is more likely a sign that your store is too lazy to chase down a supply. No lazy or they cant find them cheep enough to make profit off them Where in PA are you? Berks County. I'll guess their "specifications" are pretty loose on many important topics.
I love replies like this with nothing to back them up other than conjecture. To those of who that have posted actual first hand experience - thank you. Just knock it off; replies like that add nothing positive and serve only to escalate tension which was pretty much absent before your post.
YMMV Which small rifle and pistol primers? I assume on the rifle primers, were the small pistol primers 's or 's? It would have been really interesting to ask them what the difference between the small pistol and small pistol mag primers is and the same question for small rifle. I know what quite a few 3 gunners use just one small primer to simplify things, and it's very common for the open guys run small rifle primers especially with the emergence of open 9.
German Salazar's blog has some info on this. It irks me that primers aren't documented better. For example some magnum primers are the same oxidizer and fuel as a standard primer but with a thicker cup, and others have a different compound. Their just isn't any way to find the "right" primer without experimentation and or empirical data at this time, hell it's a black box to us. I thought my answer above was clear. CCI makes only one SR primer, the They also make only one SPM primer, the Screw what SAAMI has to say, they will probably say no go so they protect the industry which is why they exist, they could give two shits if we have primers.
I have been reloading pistol with small rifle primers for 20 years, none of the load reduction bullshit either. I have the equipment to test chamber pressure in multiple calibers including rifle and pistol and it does not cause the round to be over pressure.
I have loaded well over , just in 9mm alone and fired them through mp5's and colt rifles as well as my glocks. I have over 30, rounds through a glock 19 loaded with small rifle primers and the gun still shoots and groups well. I personally know people that work for federal, winchester and cci and they all say that you can use the small rifle for pistol without fear of blowing something up as it is the same charge amount.
I got this straight from the mouth of of a guy from winchester when he and I were talking with Mike Dillon at his store, the winchester rep said he would deny saying it but he has since retired. Small rifle magnum I do not use for pistol nor the CCI military primers as the cup is too hard but standard small rifle are good to go. You guys continue to pick fly shit out of pepper over this one, it is a non issue. If you feel like reducing your load since you don't have testing equipment go for it but you are wasting time and velocity is not a indicator of chamber pressure.
Replies by people talking out their ass don't help here either. This subject comes up often and the same misinformation comes with it every time.
