I have the opportunity to get some (free) CCI small pistol primers. But here's the catch, they're "magnum" primers, and they're about 40 years old. They are in original CCI boxes and look brand new. 2 questions, are they still good, and what effect will a magnum primer have when reloading 9mm versus regular primers?
