Yeah I'm an idiot. Looks like I may have some of both in the same tray. Hate to pitch'em all. Any dimensional differences I can use to differentiate?
I'm guessing pill bottle labeled "Large Rifle" was mixed stock.But, you can't measure the hight of the cups until after they have been seated and the anvil pushed into level inside the cup.
If they are both the same color primer sealer?
You are SOL.
Toss them.
Or at worst, try to use them in handgun, not high pressure rifle calibers.
But watch out for high primers that won't seat below flush with the case head in handgun cases.
BTW: How in the world did you manage to do that anyway?

Two thoughts:I have been loading 45acp and 44mag with large rifle since 1999 as far as can remember. Never had a single issue.
The only problem I have had, finding pistol primers.
If you are going to load pistol ammo with rifle primers, don't just switch to rifle primers and keep the powder charge and everything else the same. You have to actually develop the load, check the primer seat depth and so on.
I don't plan on ever using another pistol primer to load a pistol round ever again.
But, you can't measure the hight of the cups until after they
Two thoughts:
1) Won't the thicker cups of rifle primers make it harder to read overpressure signs in handgun loads?
2) While it would seem that all of your current handguns have a strong enough blow to set off the thicker primers, that might not be the case for any new guns you acquire. It's probably more of an issue for a 45 ACP gun than it would be for a 44 magnum revolver, especially something striker fired.
