Does anyone have any experience with sustituting Large Pistol MAGNUM primers for standard Large Pistol in 45acp with a 200gr jacketed and AA#5 or something similar?
I'm out of primers and was just thinking that with the slower powders, maybe a reduction of powder weight in an uniform amount could be calculated to compensate for the hotter primer. Has anyone come up with an amount to decrease as a "rule of thumb" or is it just go to the minimum and work up again...I'm sure that's the safest way, just seems like many others must have found themselves in a similar situation...Might be a real handy thing to know in an emergency?!...besides I still have tons of Magnums :wink:
