Understood. However, we work pretty hard to keep the place as coordinated and sensible as possible and having two threads on exactly the same topic on the same day means we're really not doing our best to focus our efforts. While we often ask folks to use the search function and see if the same topic has been addressed at any length previously, when that topic is the subject of a thread still visible on the first page within the forum a search isn't even necessary. The more people interested in a subject that we can get talking together about that subject the better, and on the flip side, we really don't want folks to have to repeat themselves in order to contribute to the group's discussion of a topic.i really dislike merged threads.. i know why you did it, but it's not seamless.
Oh, we don't discourage folks from starting threads -- just to look around a bit and see if the conversation they want to have is already going on.i'll further hesitate to start another thread.
well obviously they "fit" & thanks for a great example of a poor response on the 2nd half of your post.NWcityguy2 said:You've got your answer. All small boxer primers, rifle or pistol of all brands and kinds, will fit into any boxer primed brass that has a small primer hole...
...What else do you want, someone to do the experimenting for you on your reloading press and use your gun while they are at it?
cool.. that's really good to know. I was hoping for these kind of details.zxcvbob said:I use SR primers in .357 Mag and 9mm, not because they work better but because I have a bunch of them. Those are high pressure cartridges.
People who seem to know what they are talking about say you can get leakage around the primer in low-pressure cartridges (.38 Special, .380, etc) and erode the bolt face or back of the frame. I don't know if it's true or not, just passing the info along so you can watch for it.
you can with some powders , here is a good article http://www.loaddata.com/articles/detail.cfm?articleID=149So are we saying I can use Large Pistol Magnum primers in place of Large Pistol primers as long as reduce the powder charge to account for the hotter primer.
Sam1911: thanks for the merge,And we just had another thread that delved pretty deeply into this question: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=699259
OK so... small pistol primers labeled as 9x19 NATO may typically be equivalent to SPM primers?ArchAngelCD said:According to CCI their CCI #41 primers are equal to their SRM primers with a slightly thicker cup. The same holds true for their #34 primers ant their LRM primers. Both NATO primers are magnum strength primers.
what brand are they ?OK so... small pistol primers labeled as 9x19 NATO may typically be equivalent to SPM primers?
I have never so many options since I've had to scrounge for primers.. the 9x19 threw me off... magnum wasn't on the label.
sorry I only use Rem, Win, CCI and Fed's , have you check there web.site ? I would think yes , but not sureyeah, man.. I think they were TulAmmo 9x19 Nato.
I handload with lee classic loader. I've only used CCI SPPs.
It's possible but I'm not sure. My statement was only about CCI #34 NATO and CCI #41 NATO and their corresponding Magnum Rifle Primers.OK so... small pistol primers labeled as 9x19 NATO may typically be equivalent to SPM primers?
