RCBS Universal Hand Priming Tool 32 ACP to 45-70 Govt

The best hand priming tool.
RCBS lifetime warranty is a plus because you will break parts eventually.

I bought my second one after having one set up to do large primers. I got the first one about 15 years ago and it still works perfect. This new one is set up for small rifle primers.

This is my second universal hand primer, set up for small primers. These tools are easy to use and seating primers is always quick.

Recently purchased when the plastic shell holder assembly on my original 25 year old RCBS split. I like the new design and not having to change the shell holder for most of the cartridges I reload. My only critique is when putting the primer tray cover on, the snug fit in the center hole seems to cause a few primers to flip in the tray. A simple and very minor sizing adjustment of the center primer tray hole would resolve this. Otherwise a great tool.

I like the new shell holder setup and ease of use. So far the only problem I have is that the primer holder is difficult to snap together without a few of the primers flipping over. Other than that I love it.

I was a huge Lee fan, until I tried this. I sold my Lee primer tools, and bought two of the RCBS to replace them. I keep one set up for small primers, and the other for large primers. The RCBS tool is fast, accurate, and you don't have to mess with shell holders. I think the RCBS tool has the best ergonomics too.

I have used the lee auto prime for years, but recent changes to "improve it" made me have to look at other options (the New and improved Lee tool is terrible). I decided to quit screwing around and buy this. The only thing I can say as that this thing is as good as it gets. The only thing I can ding it on is that Switching from small to large primers is kind of a chore, but for the man who knows how to operate more tools then a Visa card, it aint that big of a deal.
