What do you use for priming?

[The Virginian]

I've been using this old RCBS primer loader for decades. The primer on my Lyman turret press is terrible, spits out a primer about every third stroke. This RCBS works pretty good and only gives me issues on the very last primer in the tube. I can live with that. Is there a better mousetrap?

I have been using Lee hand prime tools but the latest case would not fit so I have been using the press.
Now I need to dig through the instructions and find out how the feed tray works with it. I think it might work pretty good.

I use the Lee Hand priming tool, also.

The Virginian,i use what you do,only thing I ujse,use to use lee hand primer,but this is so much better

I use the RCBS hand priming tool. I can prime 100 cases in about 6 min.

I used to use an RCBS. Now use a Lee. I prefer the Lee, myself.

Lee hand priming tool here also.

I like the RCBS Universal primer tool. It has a shorter stroke than the original, the plunger is screwed in so it doesn't faal out, and does not require shell holders.

I'll very likely end up with one of the RCBS bench primer before too long. For now, to save space really, I like my hand primer. I also like that the primers seat easily, even if you leave a touch of crimp in the pocket...

as long as I'm dealing with my .204s and .223s, I use the primer seater on my Forster Co-Ax..controlled pressure and very consistent..

Handgun rounds (9,.40,& 10mms) get primed in my Lee 1000 progressive and any others get primed with my RCBS hand primer (.308s, .38/.357, & .44mag)...

I prime on my Co-Ax press as well. I use a Lee hand priming tool to prime my 300WSM.

I load a lot of #41 primers, I use an RCBS APC system. It is a pain. I have to load the strips but it works.

Old Old RCBS hand primer for me.

If it aint broke don't fix it.

 

[Orneryolfart357]

Lee hand primer, I have 3 of the old ones. I have an RCBS hand primer for when the Lee's go south.

Another Lee Hand Primer, here, the old round tray model. Keep
the grease where they say to, and it will last forever.

I use the press on small rifle/small pistol and use either a smart reloader hand primer or a rcbs hand primer for the large pistol/large rifle
