im going to load 357 158g jhp with something new-alliant 300 mp powder.
only have alliant load guide to go off of.in the past they have always listed
cci primers but on this powder they list federal primers.and state using other
primers can change charge.--well i understand that-its common sense!
i know to work your way up. i want to know why federal(100) instead of cci(500)? both are small pistol primers-not magnum.
note:i have on hand federal spm primers and cci sp primers.
