I was wondering if small primer 45 cases would start getting more love because large primer are more expensive now.

That is a good thought. If I was starting with reloading, I'd be looking for that brass. So that I could use the less expensive SPP and also standardize. But luckily I bought LPP years ago before primers went crazy expensive... I've also been successful coming across primers at estate sales... One memorable estate sale was a guy that was part of the 10th Mountain division. I bought all his powder, primers, lead, molds, WWII items, etc. I digress. So now when a small primer 45acp brass gets through when I'm reloading, it is an awe crap moment.
