While I have used magums in place of standards many times without any issues, I was just wondering what anyone else's experience is. My loads are at the low end of the scale and using magnums small pistol primers seem to work just fine. No signs over pressure. With the primer shortage around here, I have had to use what I can get. Anyone else ?
