Primer Question

[shoot-em-dead]

This summer I bought some No.9.5 M Magnum Rifle Primers made by Remington. I seen them on the shelf and thought they would work for my 300 win mag. I am finally sitting down and doing some reloading and I see that they do not say large rifle on them like my CCI boxes. Are they going to work or are they the wrong primers all together. I think they may be medium size so I will not try to load them yet.

If they are marked 9 1/2 they should be Rem Mag Lg Rifle primers.

9.5 is large rifle for remington, load away.

cool- thanks guys. I will load some and see if there is a difference between them and the CCI. Even though I doubt I have the skills to tell.

I bought a 1000 Federal small magnum pistol match GM200M primers before I started really learning about reloading. I was in the Idaho Cabelas this summer and the guy said buy while we've got 'em. So I did. Anyways, would these work in .357 mag, .40 S & W, .45 LC and .45 auto?

Those will work for the .357mag.  The .40 uses small pistol primers so I wouldn't use magnum primers.  Both the .45's use large pistol primers.
