I have some used brass headstamped "WIN NT 45 AUTO". It appears to have a small pistol primer. It certainly will not re-prime with the large pistol primers I was reloading my .45 ACP rounds with. What is this stuff? Can it be reloaded?

Currently, all domestically produced lead-free primers are only manufactured in a small size. So when ammunition manufacturers offer lead-free primered ammo, they make brass with small primer pockets regardless of caliber. In addition to Winchester, Federal also offes NT 45 ACP ammo; also equipped with small primer pockets. This brass may be successfully loaded. It merely requires you to sort it from the other brass and use small primers in it.

Will any brand of small pistol primers work or does this brass and the standard loads for .45 ACP require those "lead-free" primers?

Any brand of small pistol primers is fine with this brass. As well, all piblished loads are fine as well.

I've heard about this new brass on another reloading website. Yes, you use a small pistol primer but know nothing else about this new brass.
