[QUOTE="Right-On-Target, post: 2143835, member: 28004"] This may be an outdated discussion for some of you, but .. I started loading 45acp rounds in 1984 using CCI Large Rifle primers. No one ever told me I couldnt. Having rifles I always had the primers for them. Of late I have seen posts, discussions, forums, etc., that mention the difference in dimensions of the Large Rifle primer versus the Large Pistol primer, but I will tell you that a 45acp round with a CCI Large Rifle will chamber just fine in a 1911. One thing I have noticed however is that I experience 1, maybe 2 stove pipe jams in every 50 round lot of my loads, where factory rounds work flawlessly. I have heard a few hundred reasons for stove pipe jams in a 1911, and I always thought that I must be disfiguring a case or two when loading or not crimping all the rounds properly. Have any of you seen manufacturer data or other research that provides details on how the Large Rifle primer interacts with the powder differently than the Large Pistol primer? Just curious BTW I use Large Pistol primers now. [/QUOTE]
