Small primers in .45 ACP
I was reloading my hodge-podge bucket of brass and came across a couple pieces that take small pistol primers I didn't know about.
One was stamped Federal .45 ACP and the other was brass Blazer .45 ACP. I knew that Winchester was using small primers in some of their brass, but didn't know about Federal and CCI were doing it, too.

Most red box Federal ammo from Walmart has small primers. The red box stuff is sold exclusively to Walmart.
