Anybody using this hand primer? It shows it to be able to adjust primer depth by the .001, and comes with 12 shell holders and a plastic case. I saw it for $54 which is about half of a Sinclair.
 
I use one. It is absolutely the best hand priming tool I have ever used and I have tried just about all others out there. Fabulous tool for the money. Does not have a shell holder for 6.8 SPC but my Lee shell holders seem to work fine in it when necessary.
 
It does have a shell holder for 40 S&W, #19. Just tried it and the 6.8 brass does not fit. The brass is too large. My Lee # 21 does the job nicely though.
 
Thanks everyone for the head's up on the Frankfort Priming Tool.

My old round tray Lee started acting up last week with the primers hanging up inside the hole where they are pushed up into the pocket. I had to trim burrs inside of the plastic hole several times when priming only a hundred cases.

I'm going to take a hard look at the FA tool.
 
Well I picked it up for $54 and well worth it. It's as good a hand primer as I've ever used. Pretty good value with the included 12 shell holders and storage case.
