[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1565440, member: 10291"] Myself and several of my buddies has used both the Lapua small primer and Hornady(as well as other) cases with large primer designs. Case life due to primer pocket expansion is generally better. Accuracy and ES is comparable. All of us use the .625” (small) firing pins as opposed to the .75” large firing pin as is generally recommended for best ignition characteristics for small rifle primers. Blown primers seem to be attributable to the specific choice of primer cup thickness, load presure, and/or setting finish/condition of the firing pin. IMO. [/QUOTE]
