Federal 209A primers are hotter than Federal 209 primers and are hotter than Winchester or Remmington or CCI 209 primers. To duplicate your load when substituting Federal 209A primers in place of any other 209 primer, use 1 grain less powder for like performance.

What is the primer sensitivity of small pistol primers and regular 9mm primers?

9mm Parabellum cartridges (9mm Luger) HAVE small pistol primers. For some applications such as submachine guns with a free floating firing pin, a harder primer may be used. However, in most applications, the same primer used in .38 Special would also be used in a 9mm.


Way do we mix primer with thinner instead of water?

Primer is typically mixed with a thinner instead of water for several reasons: Solvent compatibility: Primers are often oil-based or solvent-based, and water-based paint is not compatible with these types of primers. Mixing water with an oil-based or solvent-based primer can cause the primer to separate or not adhere properly to the surface. Optimal performance: Thinner is specifically formulated to thin and enhance the flow of oil-based or solvent-based paints and primers. It helps to achieve the desired consistency, improves leveling, and promotes better adhesion and coverage. Water may not provide the same benefits and can result in a subpar finish. Drying time: Thinning a primer with the appropriate thinner can help regulate the drying time. Thinner evaporates more quickly than water, allowing the primer to dry at the expected rate, ensuring proper curing and durability. Professional recommendations: Manufacturers of primers often recommend using their recommended thinner or solvent to achieve the best results. Following these guidelines ensures that the primer performs as intended and maintains its qualities and protective properties. It's important to consult the specific instructions and recommendations provided by the manufacturer of the primer you are using to determine the appropriate thinner or solvent to mix with the primer for optimal results.


What color primer should you use?

Orange. Why are you using a primer? If the walls are already painted, just apply 2 coats of the paint that you want to use. If you use primer, have the paint store tint the primer toward the orange color that you have chosen.


What does rimfire and centerfire mean?

A centrefire cartridge has a primer centred at the rear of the casing. This primer contains a charge which is ignited when the primer is struck (normally by a firing pin, though some guns will have the pin integral with the hammer), and this ignites the gunpowder whidh propels the bullet forward. Rimfire guns work in pretty much the same fashion, except that they don't use primers. Rather, the priming charge is packed into the rim of the cartridge.


How do you get primers in Fallout New Vegas for PS3?

I assume you mean the ammo components, i.e. Primer, Small Pistol; Primer, Shotgun. You can get these either from disassembling ammo of the same category (Sm. Pistol, Lg. Pistol, Sm. Rifle, Lg. Rifle, Shotgun, or .50 MG) or you can buy them from various vendors. The Gun Runners have it almost all the time.


Does alkyd paint come in flat sheen?

Yes it does. Many oil based primers can be used as a flat paint also. Normally, the primer will cure too hard to be used as a primer coat within two weeks, but it is a hard, flat to low sheen surface. In fact, you can make a chalkboard paint in almost any color out of oil based primer if you let the surface cure for a couple of weeks. Enamel undercoater will not work in the same way though.


Can eyeshadow primer be used as a face primer as well?

I always use my foundation as my eyeshadow primer! It worked amazing with me and it leaves me with less worry about the primer making my eyelids lighter or darker than my skintone. It also keeps the eyeshadow put in place It might not work with all foundations though, I use Clinique Almost Makeup foundation (the one with spf 15) it's amazing!


Can small pistol and rifle primers be interchanged?

The SP and SR primers are same size, but with different cup thickness/hardness and different amount/brisance of priming compound. You will need to be vigilant in working up loads. You can use small rifle primers in place of small pistol, just not the reverse.

How does a bullet primer work?

A catridge primer is one of four components of a centerfire cartridge. The other components are the case, powder charge, and bullet. In reference to centerfire catridges, the primer is located in the center of the headstamp, and is the first "combustible" component in the firing series. Typically, the primer contains approximately 1 grain of propellent designed to "spark" when struck by the firing pin. The "spark" then travels down the flash hole of the catridge igniting the powder charge inside. As the powder charge burns, gasses build up and force the bullet to separate from the case, traveling down the barrel and ultimately out of the muzzle. Caution should be taken when handling or storing primers, as they are designed to ignite on impact, but can be activated by heat as well. Rimfire primers are a combustible material that are laid in the bottom of the case near the rim. The best explanation would be that the primer is on the opposing side of the headstamp, around the rim. They act in a similar manner and firing sequence of centerfire cartridges, except that they are activated by a striker surface hitting anywhere on the "rim" of the case. The striker typically strikes the rim at an angle causing a visible dent on the rim, hence rim fire. Shotgun shells work the same as centerfire cartridges, however their components are slightly different. They contain the primer, hull, powder charge, wad, and shot (or slug).


How do you make shell primers?

Shell primers are typically manufactured by pressing a mixture of explosive compound, anvil, and priming mix into a metal cup. This cup is then inserted into the base of the shotgun shell casing. The explosive compound is usually lead styphnate or lead azide, which detonates upon impact to ignite the gunpowder and propel the projectile. Manufacturing shell primers requires specialized equipment and knowledge of explosives handling to ensure safety.
