So I reload for several rifle calibers and 9mm, 38 ,
Have a good supply of 45 acp brass and figure time to do it.
Sorted out couple hundred large primer hulls and checked them with primer pocket gauge. Fail
No problem ream and uniform. Oops, did not realise large pistol primer pockets were 0.008 thousands shorter.
Brass was cleaned, deprimed, reamed and uniformed with large rifle uniformer. Then tumbled with wax.
No large pistol primers available at the moment anyway.
Can I use large rifle primers and reduce my powder by (x ?) Ammount? Was just wanting poofers for targets. 230g rn copper plated @ 700-750 ish.
Or is this a 300 round brass fatality?
