Small Pistol Primers
I'm in the market for some primers for my 9mm. I've seen several descriptions for small pistol primers, such as : #1-1/2, #5-1/2, #100, #200 and #500. I've used the #500 small pistol primers in the past. Is it ok to use the others? What's the differences?
Thanks. |

Each manufacturer has their own numbers. As long as it says small pistol primer on the box you are good to go. I have used just about every manufacturer and they all work!!

Mdemetz,
That shotshell primer crossreference seems questionable to me. REM97=Win209=CCI109? And what about the REM57/CCI157? Have primer numbers changed? Thanks, TB |
