Discussion re:
--- Quote ---proper primer sizes (and magnum or not)

During the Last Obama Election-Induced Shooting Stuff shortage (early 2009), many reloaders who couldn't find Small Pistol Primers anywhere were using Small Magnum (yes....oxymoron) Piston Primers in place of WSPs, as specified in the reloading manual.
They reduced their powder charges down toward the left end of the load ranges, say from 4.0gr to maybe....3.5gr. Pop in a WSM primer and go.
Anybody with fingers left who has ever done so and wishes to share the results???

As it turns out, I was handed MAGNUM WSP primers. Anyone want to trade for standard WSP?
I swear I can't win...

WSPs vs. WSPMs
Don'tcha wish Winchester would come up with some distinctly different graphics for different primers??
Primer mixup happens a lot. An awful lot. Especially when the primers are held behind the counter in retail stores.
