    Primers

    Please, without getting hammered could someone answer a question for me. If things get really bad and small rifle primers are not available if a person had an abundance of small pistol primers what would be the problems involved in using for rifle?

    Slam fire and punched primers. Not enough ignition to burn powder completely.

    Thank you, I had visited several forums just to see what others had to say but no one really explained the reason for not doing so. I had no intentions of trying it until fully researching the do's and don'ts and then only in an emergency such as a zombie attack.
