Pistol Primer Parameters
There are a few basic parameters that you need to evaluate when buying primers:
- Primer size (large, small)
Some cartridges (45acp, 44 special, 44 magnum,…) require a large pistol primer, whereas others (9mm, 38 special, 357 magnum,…) demand a small pistol primer. Depending on the cartridge you’re reloading, you’ll need to purchase the appropriate size primer. - Primer type (Regular, Magnum, Multi-Purpose)
The primer type determines the overall intensity of the primer flame. Non-magnum loads, such as 38 special, require only a tiny flame to ignite the powder charge. Magnum loads necessitate higher activation energy since there is more powder to burn. A primer can be designed to work with both ordinary and magnum loads in specific instances (see WLP below). - Hardness
The amount of force required to ignite the primer is referred to as its hardness. Some primers are softer (Federal), some are tougher (CCI), and some are somewhere in the middle (Winchester). Softer primers may be required if your pistol has a lightened or changed trigger/action.
Can You Substitute Large Rifle Primers For Large Pistol Primers?
This means that an LRP will not seat flush or below the face of the case head in a handgun cartridge, resulting in a potentially dangerous condition. However, the LPP will fit and seat in an LRP primer pocket, but it will seat too deeply. Just because something fits doesn’t imply it’ll work.
What Pistol Calibers Use Large Primers?
Large pistol primers are required for calibers such as 45acp, 44 magnums, and 44 special, while standard small primers are suitable for 9mm, 38 special, and 357 magnum.
Can you use Large Pistol Primers in 357 Magnum?
Some cartridges (45acp, 44 special, 44 magnum,…) require a large pistol primer, whereas others (9mm, 38 special, 357 magnum,…) demand a small pistol primer. Depending on the cartridge you’re reloading, you’ll need to purchase the appropriate size primer.

Why Do You Need This Primers?
- Primers are a vital necessity whether you possess a large or little gun. Reloading guns is all about accuracy, which is what primers are for!
- Its fundamental capacity is to touch off the charge powder inside the gun’s cartridge. Without primers, the slugs will be stuck in the barrel.
- The primers have a few sensitive elements inside the metal cover. When the small gun’s firing pin strikes the preliminary cap, the prepared synthetic is squashed inside the metal iron block and cap. As a result, the primers transmit hot gas into the glimmer opening and cartridge case. This causes the temperatures and pushing factor inside it to rise, which eventually ignites the force powder.
- These priming parts are normally barium nitrate, antimony sulfide, and lead styphnate. These synthetic substances cooperate to deliver warmth and gas.
- Despite brands, all primers will unquestionably upgrade your shooting and reloading experience.
