Small primer 44 magnum

[Mongo Safari]

My son and I picked up a handful of 44 mag cases at the range today. Four cases are marked S S and have small primers. Do you know who made S S cases?

Last year while policing my 45 ACP brass I picked up some Blaser, Speer, Federal along with my R-P brass. We found some of the FC, and all the Speer and Blaser had small primers. I tested a few rounds with my Bullseye load and CCI small pistol primers. They worked fine. I just need to keep the large and smalls cases separated. I'll save the small primed cases, cleaned and put away for a time when large primers go extinct for a while.

I've seen small primer .45 ACP (Blazer and a couple of others), but I have never seen small primer .44 Mag. I don't reload .44 Magnum, but I do reload .44 Spl. These days I discard the small primer .45 brass; I would probably do the same with .44 Spl if it had small primers.
