This is probably a dumb question that I should know the answer to since I have been reloading for 25 yrs. Here goes anyway: I've been loading full house .44mag and also some .44sp loads the last few days. I have run out of large pistol primers, but have plenty of large magnum pistol primers. Is there any reason not to use large magnum pistol primers in low powered plinking loads? I would guess that they might have an effect on accuracy, but is there anything that might present a danger. Also, I have always wondered about using .38sp data and .44sp data for loading in .357 mag and .44 mag cases respectively. Are there any concerns there since the volume of the combustion chamber is different?
