Use of small pistol primers in Carbine loads..

[edlmann]

Small pistol primers are indeed thinner. They are also "softer" to a firing pin hit, which means they may be more prone to a slam fire or out-of battery firing (bad things) in a rifle like a carbine which has a free-floating firing pin. They may work, but I wouldn't use them personally.

I would - but only in my Ruger Blackhawk.

FWIW; AFAIK; IMHO; YMMV; yadda, yadda, yadda.
