A diagram of an API round that I have shows that the primer in the cartridge is an "electric primer". The inert TP round that I have has an indentation in the primer that looks like it was made by a firing pin of some sort. Can anyone tell me if the primer is an electric or impact type? Thanks, Bob |

Correct terminology would be "percussion primed." Fender "Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it." George Bernard Shaw |
