Re: Following up on the small primer discussion
The whole primer discussion has made me feel more comfortable with my primer supplies! I was getting "low" on large rifle primers at only a few thousand, and beginning to worry. I usually keep around 30,000 primers of all sizes, and since I shoot more large rifle than anything in my old single shots and lever guns, 3,000 isn't much. Now I'm going to start using up some magnum pistol primers I don't use at all, and some magnum rifle primers too.

Re: Following up on the small primer discussion
This is the first time I have seen anything approaching scientific on the subject. So I was really happy to see it.
