This morning I discovered that some .45 Federal brass takes small primers while all other brands take large
primers. Did not know that.


Life ain't supposed to be easy.

I have read about that but never loaded anything that has so never paid attention to it. . That would be frustrating on o e hand but could be beneficial giving you options durring a shortage.

yup you can get small primer brass in anything Vista outdoors so Speer , Federal , American eagle , blazer

what you want is to be the guy who runs small pistol primer brass because everyone will give you all they find.

I believe it has something to do with .45 LC and smokeless vs black powder, and the .45ACPvs the .45 auto Rim case
