Newbie question on primers

[f150mikey57]

So I just last week ordered my equipment to start reloading 9mm. I picked up some primers from the local store and the only small pistol primers they had were Remington 5.5 small pistol primers. Being new to this I didn't know about the 1.5 primers and kind of freaked out when I got home thinking they were useless to me. Upon further research it seems they have the same charge but the metal in the 5.5 it's just a bit thicker but now that has me worried about light primer strikes in my glock with a 4 lb striker spring. Anybody else use these primers with a light striker spring? I'm hoping they are at least useable and will get the ones I really need when these are all used up.

Only a test will tell in YOUR gun. I have so far avoided ever using a Remington primer because of the reputed hardness

For the best chance of success, make sure you fully seat them. They are fully seated If you can run your finger across the base and you can feel the primer just BELOW flush, you're likely good to go. If the primer is flush or raised, you invite a light strike, especially on those with a reputation of being hard.

Pretty much what I was thinking but was hoping to get somebody with a similar situation. Will probably test a bunch anyways before I go loading a mass quantity or using them for matches.
