bosseyed Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Hi Can pistol primers be used from rifle loads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCetrizine Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 They'd fit but small rifle primers burn hotter than small pistol primers. I'd imagine the same is true of large pistol/rifle but I don't know for sure. It's quite common to use small rifle primers in hot .38 super and 9mm pistol loads. I'm not sure what benefit/defecit you'd get going the other way except for needing more powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
