I've been reloading handgun for about a year now and one of the reasons that I got into reloading is so I can continue to shoot my 25 Krag. It uses a 30-40 Krag casing that is necked down to .25 caliber. Obviously, not a factory load. My cousin reloaded the last batch for me (back in '82!) and I'm getting everything ready to start my own batch. I've been shopping for primers and his recipe calls for 8 1/2 primers. Where I get my primers, they have large rifle primers (Winchester, I think). Are these the same? How do they differentiate rifle primers with the numbers and Large/Small? What are the differences between 8 1/2 and 9 1/2 primers? How do they compare with large/small rifle primers?
thanks for any enlightenment.
