Any brass ever made in 10mm with a small primer? I think this would be a good thing for those of us who like to load the rounds a little on the hot side.
Freedom arms did this with the 454 casull and we used small rifle primers. I recently picked up some 10mm brass with opened up primer pockets from overloads and some 45acp brass with the small primers...so it was not rocket science to think about this. My testing with hot loads in 40 sw seems to indicate the strength of the smaller primer pocket brass. BTW I know some consider it very dangerous to load beyond published standards and I am not advocating such...just interested in the small primer idea. Thanks.
 
I worked the Bren Ten booth at the SHOT Show back in '84 and have shot and reloaded the 10mm since. I have never run across any 10mm brass with the small primer pocket. But, I am old enough to "never say never".
