Somehow I managed to find myself with 1000 cci 350 magnum large pistol primers, but the only cartridge I load that takes a large pistol primer is the .45 ACP.

Is there any danger in using the magnum primers in the .45 auto?

I use a medium load of 230 grain lrn over 3.9 grains of clays.

Can I get away with just dialing back the powder a little?

Thanks guys,

I thought I was on the right track, but I did not want to punch out 500 rounds and then find out I just wasted a bunch of brass, bullets and powder.

I will drop the powder and load up a small batch and see how they feel. Unfortunately I do not have access to a chrony so I cannot give actual results.

Yeah I know you can pull bullets, I also know it is a major pain in the a&&!

I'd rather get it right the first time:D
