Lil gun powder and small pistol primers


Recommended Posts

anyone using the above please in a hornet.

not tried the Lil gun , but use H 110 with small pistol primers and they are fine.

 

 

Small pistol primers, either standard or magnum, must not be used for rifle cartridges. The higher operating pressures common to these cartridges (even when used in a pistol, such as the T/C Contender) presents a serious risk of pierced or blown primers if the thin-cupped small pistol primers are substituted for the correct rifle primer.

 

You may get away with it for a 1000 shots but it will only take the 1 that you dont to cause the problems and that may just be the next one.
