I have bought a Zastava Hornet for my 11 year old daughter (she shot her first bunny with it the other evening) and once the factory ammo is gone (no, I didn't buy it; came with the rifle!!) we will need to load. I have been loading some 225415s over 2400 the last couple of days with encouraging results and have tried CCI small pistol and Winchester small rifle primers thus far. There appears little difference between the primers so far. I still have CCI small rifle to try also and intend to buy some Remington 7 1/2s this week. Any experience on the forum regarding primers in the Hornet? It has been suggested small cases are more susceptible to such variations. I am really interested to know if it is a factor of the strength of the primer or the powder it is lighting. IE: does ball powder need 'X' primer whereas Unique doesn't care?????
