I'm just getting into reloading for my GP100 .357 revolver. I picked up some Accurate Arms #5 and #9 powder, Winchester small pistol primers, and Winchester 158 gr JHPs. (and a Lee Classic Turret Kit, etc, etc.).
It's clear from the reloading data I've looked from AA that I can use either magnum or non-magnum small pistol primers for #5. But what is not clear to me is if I can use my non-mag primers for #9, or should I stick with the magnum primers when working up loads using the #9 powder.
Any clarification would be appreciated (I emailed AA but haven't heard back from them).
Thanks.
EDIT: Just checked my email, and what do you know? Got a reply from AA...using the non-magnum primers would be "fine".
