According to this article, the only advantage of SRP for a shooter like myself is pocket longevity. Because I don't get to shoot as much as I'd like, and therefore cases will last plenty long even if LRP, primer pocket size will not be of much concern to me in my next investment. Thank you for posting.

Yes.

I suspected LRP would produce more velocity, and they did. If a guy really keeps up with his brass (I do) then SRP makes complete sense.
