Thanks and appreciate the input; and LD you got to be about the most knowledgeable TFF member on this site (even though you're from Californistan). So, I guess I'll start using some of those CCI's. I'm just newbee to the whole reloading thing, so when friends tell me this primer or that, I'll just remember if they go bang and fit they are good.

Wife and I are doing the 600 mile drive into Anchorage in 2 weeks for doc visits & supplies. I'm picking up a few thousand primers for my revolvers, 44, 480, 460 mags. I guess its th same with those as with the rifle primers. About 10 years back, I shot a blk bear that was crawling in on me real slow, front quarters down, butt up in air, ears goin like crazy and he was too close; within 10 feet; just like a cat on a rabbit. Thats why I think about primers.
