[QUOTE="okietom, post: 2335491, member: 18710"] Yes, you can. The magnum pistol primers are a little "hotter" than non magnum primers. They are for igniting larger amounts of slower burning powders than standard primers. It is not needed in most pistol cases and loads. I sometimes use standard large pistol primers in .44magnum cases with light loads. If you can find data for doing so use it. There has been articles written about this. There can be problems with doing it. You should not simply make the substitution and expect no problems. Reduce your loads and go slow. It is definitely not possible with the bastard small primer .45acp cases. I would not try it without more research. [/QUOTE]
