  • @johniac7078 i have a few boxs full of federal 45 acp brass and they take sm primers. have any clues as to why they switched to small primers?

  • @ipaintyou1 good question, i really dont know, but you can just use small primers and they fire just fine...maybe with modern powder the small primers work fine, but back in the day it may have needed a large primer to get the powder burning....just a guess.

  • @batt3687 9, 40 use small. 45 large. Then there are magnum primers.

  • @glock2312 The 650 rocks. Should be perfect. Thanks for the nice comments.

  • What a great video John. If I did not already have a full plate, I would be reloading like a madman. Happy New Year buddy. : )

  • @ChromeFreak123 thanks MIke!

  • @johniac7078 they shoot just fine. i just dont shoot anything that takes sm pistol primers so i have to buy more primers just to load them. ok thanks for the reply

  • These videos just keep getting better and better. I love the pace of the videos, the great camera angles, attention to each minute detail and HD quality. I imagine you are helping thousands and thousands of us reloading noobs to greater enjoy the wonderful sport of shooting. Thanks a million!

  • Very informative video as usual. I've been shooting for years and now I would like to save some money reloading. What do you think of selecting the Dillon XL-650 as my first reloading machine. I would like to reload 9mm, 40 cal and down the road .223. Generally speaking, how many empty casings is good to start with for reloading. I shoot every other week a couple hundred rounds. Great detail in your dillon videos. Your Gun Safe is like a party in a box ...whooo yeah!!

  • Which size pistol calibers use which size primers?

  • good show of a quality piece of machinery..
