Dominion Small Pistol Primers

I have some rifle ones but wasn't sure if there was an issue with setting them off with a pistol, especially the M&P striker fire's that I shoot that barely hit the primer now. Guessing my 1911's and Thureon carbine would be fine as they hit it pretty hard.

Might make up a few to test drive
 
I have only gone through a couple of hundred of the small rifle primers on an m&p9, so far 2 light strikes that had to be fed a second time to go off. I didn't have any issues with the dominion small pistol.
 
I made a mistake , once , by using LRP in .455 Colt . It raised the velocity by 100 f/s . (700 to 800 f/s )
The LRP are about .004 higher that LPP . They fit in revolver but had a few that needed to be hit 2x .
 
Regardless of what a lot of folks are writing, I wouldn't use the small rifle primers. I've tried ... and there are issues. There are pressure and velocity issues, so depending on your adversity to risk you may or may not want to move forward from that. I figured the increased pressure wasn't an issue for the firearms I'd be using. I created 1000 rounds with identical loads but 500 with S&B SRP and 500 with Dominion SRP. The Dominion SRP worked better in my handguns than the S&B. For example -- my M&P would only shoot about 50% of the S&B but shot about 75-80% of the Dominion. The only pistol I tried that was able to fire them without any issues was my Beretta 92A1. My SIG P226 was 100% with the Dominion and about 95% with the S&B. Other guns I tried, from best to worst, Walther PPQ, M&P, Jericho, and Glock 19. The Glock 19, an otherwise totally reliable gun, shot maybe 70-75% of the Dominion but only 20-30% of the S&B loaded rounds.

I understand that your mileage may vary ... but I thought I'd let you know how it worked out for me.
 
I've shot about 500 rounds loaded with the dominion srp and they work 100% in my p226 and sp-01 shadow so I plan on buying a whole lot more.
 
i have used about 3000 srp in my pistols without any problem at all..mind you my guns are all steel,,no plastic tupperware guns.. :)
 
No issues with the SRP in my 9mm/40s&w 1911's, BHP's, S&W wheel guns, Girsan 92 clones, haven't tried them in the striker fired yet.
