[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 790582, member: 48043"] Large pistol primers are shallower, so even if you back off to account for the cup strength, you will likely have misfires. The amount of compound is also a bit less than rifle primers, so anything bigger than a short action standard like a 308 might not light well. Much better to wait or get your name on one of the online waiting lists. Trade with someone who needs pistol primers might be an option too. Those little buggers are rather hard to find too. [/QUOTE]
