maybe you have to unsubscribe from this particular one, each time it shows up, for at least 27, 000 more times..??
 
Ammo companies are always looking for ways to save money. Using small pistol primers are one way they can save big. Reloaders know that SPP are cheaper and easier to find than LPP. I can usually find SPP for about $65 while LPP are around $80 or more if you can find them. If you insist on using premium primers, you will spend $100 or more per 1K. Fast forward a few years and you may be hard pressed to find .45 ACP brass with large primer provisions.
I would certainly use small primer brass, but since I have 10K or more of the large primer brass, I'd rather not mix them.

that's just it, SPP, or LPP, they both work...anyone that reloads, just has to inspect each case, either before cleaning, or at least when inserting into the press's shell plate, if an automatic case feeder is not in use.

i always check the case bottom before inserting into the shell plate, so that slows me down, but then too, i even check each case for powder drop as well...which is also slowing me down, but then too, i am in NO rush to reload ammo....

time spent checking each process is time well spent, to avoid a possible catastrophic event.

i'll let the factories push out thousands of rounds per hour.

As noted. If you don’t reload it’s not an issue. If you DO reload it’s a PITA. Doable, but you sure better check each case up front. Trying to stuff a large printer in a small pocket can get “exciting”😳

I have several hundred .45 cases that I reload; some of them use large primers and some use small primers. Have noticed no difference in performance between the two.

for me, i'd prefer LPP only due to when i store away my reloads, the labels would have to indicate LPP or SPP (as well as charge, bullet type, gunpowder and grains, and OAL, and date), and they would have to be stacked on different shelves.

easy enough to add the SPP or LPP, but a bit of a nuisance to have to use another shelf, in an already tight cabinet in a tight area of the basement.

and for me, i don't save the SPP casings for anyone that does use them..they get tossed into my recycling bucket

and true, there isn't any noticeable difference in the firing of the ammo.
