Small Rifle Primers CZ Pistol

[DesertRatR]

They are harder for sure. Only reason asking this is now small pistol primers are gone everywhere I still have several but who knows how long this is gonna last. SR are available and I have several too

I've heard that but can't recall having a problem with them

Those with custom / competition pistols where a S&B or CCI small pistol primer doesn't ignite consistently (if at all) will have many more issues with small rifle primers.

I have pistols that will ignite any primer I've tried and those that require the Federal primers.

I’ve used Winchester SRP in my CZ’s ( PO-1 and my PO-7) without problems, one thing to remember, as a rule you should reduce your powder charge about 1 grain, because the rifle primers DO burn for a longer period of time and burn hotter, they have to, as some rifle powders are harder to get lit, than others. At least that’s what I’ve been told. Anyway, reduce your charge at first, and work your way back up.. That’s the rule of thumb I’ve went with, and it’s always worked..
