Re: Small pistol primers
I have not had any issues with the reloading process. Seating didn't seem any different than the S&B or Winchester that I used before in my Hornady single stage press.
My stock Glock 19 Gen 4 has had zero issues. The stock Glock 17 Gen 3 needed a stronger (red) striker spring to not have occasional light strikes. Before the spring upgrade it would have 2 - 3 light strikes per 100rds.

Re: Small pistol primers
Went through 2000, they did take more effort to seat using hand priming (Lee ergo) compared to S&B. All went bang (G43/26/19)

Re: Small pistol primers
I went through at least 5000 Ginex primers. The only complaint I have is that seating is more difficult than S&B (my “normal” primers) or Fiocchi (my current primer when I couldn’t find anything else except CCI).
I have since bought a lot of Ginex primers again, which I will start using when the Fiocchis run out in 450 reloads’ time (I have 3 x 150 trays left).
No misfires or light strikes in the Shadow running light springs.
I hand prime with a RCBS tool. It has a universal shell holder and if the doppie is not centered nicely between the spring loaded jaws, the primer can jam and go in badly. If I take care it is not a problem.

Re: Small pistol primers
Anyone tried these in a Dillon press? Super 1050 or the 650?

Re: Small pistol primers
Anyone running small rifle primers in their Glock with a red striker spring. Standard spring does not work. Would prefer to buy one primer to ease switch over.
