Primer Difference

[smokemjoe]

I am starting to run low on large rifle primers that I use in my 41 swiss with unique powder, I have alot of rem. mag primers, Is there any difference in them to std. Rem .rifle primers, What if I changed to large Pistol primers, Thanks- Joe

You can use the mag primers but will need to redo your load development for changing components.

Not a good idea to use large pistol primers in a rifle caliber. They have different dimensions.

Actually using large pistol primers is normally just fine, you can't really use large rifle primers in place of large pistol as they will be a bit high. It is actually recommended to use large pistol primers in large rifle cases for low pressure cast rounds. Casters are always rediscovering this accuracy trick.

Sat on my hands while Powder Valley ran out of large rifle Wolf primers for $16 per M.
They do still have LP and LP magnum for $15.50.
