    Win small pistol primers in 223

    Sooo, today was offered some winchester small pistol primers at a decent price.

    I asked the Qn (twice) can I use these in a 223?
    Or are rhey only recommended for pistols and hornets?

    Informed that that Win are fine for 223.
    Asked elsewhere later and again told Winchesters will be ok. But not all brands.
    Soo, took a punt and bought 300.

    Now my loads are not hot. Mid range only.
    But anyone had experience using them in 223.

    I'm still a bit suspicious.
    Obviously I'll back the loads off a bit for initial testing.
    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    A bit more bang is better.
