45 ACP SP
These days, some places require lead free ammo which means a change in priming compounds as well. The makers of ammo used small pistol primers in all of their lead free ammo to simply production.
So, when you find 45 ACP cases with small primer pockets, it started life as lead free factory ammo. These cases are fine to reload, but you need to watch the used brass you buy or pick up and keep these cases seperate.
