[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 2012688, member: 2736"] That was the idea and with some small cartridges it is very popular for the case life and the smaller flash hole is supposed to improve ignition. However, they do work well when using small amounts of fast burning powder that ignites well. I have tried both primer sizes and didn't find any real improvements in case life or accuracy, but to qualify my findings, I dont shoot many small cartridges and never load hot (High pressures) and find that maintaining both sizes of primers not worth the inventory in primers and loading components. Just Me :) If you work up loads for ether primer size one will not be better than the other and they definitely will not work with larger cartridges and huge amounts of powder, so I just stick to Large rifle primers where they can be used.
