I have been loading small pistol loads with small rifle primers for 3 years. Over 25 thousand loaded, and fired. .38 special/.357 mag. .45 Auto (a few hundred, shoot them where I know I will not be able to pick them back up.) tons of 9mm. None of my loads are anywhere near the maximum. All were worked up from starting loads.
I started with them due to the fact that they were all I could find, and get. None have failed to fire, in any of the guns I have used them in.
I still use them to keep things simple. I was using them for rifle loads before I started loading for any pistol rounds. Since they worked I just buy more small rifle primers.
