What do you mean? If you are shooting .45 Colt you use large primers, .38 Special small primers, etc. Or are you talking about trying large pistol primers in a big bore rifle? In any event it is not SASS legal for the BP categories.

It's not SASS-legal in ANY category.

Directions called for shotgun primers only....but never mind. Palewolf answered the big question...I go looking at other powder options...

Triple 7 is pretty good stuff Matthew. It's currently running at about $27 a bottle in these parts, makes a nice boom and plenty of smoke. And large pistol primers (I use Winchester) set it off every time.

 

In the name of economy, this year I'm trying Pyrodex at $19 a bottle in my shotgun. Got 164 shells out of a pound of it.
