Hey, I know you guys don't like finding that small primer stuff, but if you find some I'll take it, buy it, haul it off, steal it, whatever. LOL Since I haven't gotten around to ordering a large primer assembly for the used Dillon SDB I got a while bac, that is what I am using. I know I know, too busy playing.

I wonder if that is why I am having a hard time making the perfect load. :shock:

There's some federal .45 that's still LPP... but I'm stockpiling mine in case there's a changeover.

All I ever see here in Corpus is SPP on the Federal.

I have a lot more of the Winchester once fired brass than I do of the Federal, I'll start using it some day. I just keep picking it up and saving it. :txflag:

Honestly, if all automatic pistol brass used small pistol primers it would make my life a lot simpler. .45 ACP is the only caliber I reload that uses large pistol primers. I have reloaded some of the SPP brass and couldn't tell any difference in the performance. Rifles? That's a different story.
