kuletchi1 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 On the 9 major its needed due to the amount of powder that needs to burn. Depending on the powder use, i sometimes get unburned powder.Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk I run CCI 500 small pistol primers in all my Open loads (major and minor) and have no unburned powder. Irun the same in 9mm minor, 40sw minor and major, and 45. Zero problems. Edited August 20, 2020 by zzt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigedp51 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) CHOOSING THE RIGHT PRIMER - A PRIMER ON PRIMERS http://www.sksboards.com/smf/index.php?topic=56422.0 Small Handgun Standard .017" cup thickness Small Handgun Magnum .017" cup thicknessCCI 550 See Note 1 at the bottom of page NOTE 1: According to Speer/CCI Technical Services - Both the CCI 550 Small Pistol Magnum and CCI 400 Small Rifle primers are identical in size. Both primers use the same cup metal and share the same cup thickness. Both primers use the same primer compound formula and same amount of primer compound. They can be used interchangeably. Small Rifle StandardCCI 400 -thin .020" cup, not recommended for AR15 use by CCI/Speer. Good for .22 Hornet, .30 Carbine. See Note 1 at the bottom of the pageCCI BR4 - match primer with a thicker .025" cup. Federal 205 - Mil-Spec cup thickness according to Federal - okay for 5.56mm. .0225" cup thickness.Federal 205M - same as the 205 but the match version.Magtech PR-SR - .025" cup thickness (not much feedback yet on this new primer as to AR15 suitability but with the same cup thickness as the Rem 7 1/2 it looks good so far) Remington 6 ½ - thin .020" cup, intended for older, lower pressure rounds Remington says do not use for the .223 Rem or other similar pressure rounds. Good for .22 Hornet, .30 Carbine.Remington 7 ½ BR - A match or "bench rest" primer. Lyman & Nosler classify this primer as a Standard. Remington says the compound is the same as the 6 1/2 but with a thicker .025" cup.RWS 4033Winchester WSR - some piercing issues noted when changed from silver to brass cup. Cup thickness is a bit thinner at .021". Most say they are good to go for the AR15 despite that, probably because of the hardness of the cup. Some feel they are less resistant to higher pressures.Wolf/Tula Small Rifle SR #KVB-223 - soft, sensitive copper cup, not recommended for AR15/military rifle use or high pressure rounds.

NOSHMJ Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I only use small rifle primers. I use them for 9 major, and minor, along with 40 major and minor. No issues, and its easy to just keep 1 primer in your stash to load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
