    Lee is a good starter tool I still use mine . I like the old style better I use the new one for parts.

      I stumbled across this one just like 21st Century's aircraft aluminum hand primer. Sinclair Priming Tool. Just thought I would throw this one into the mix too.

        RCBS hand primer, works 99% of the time.

Bigbronco let me try both without pressure of which one was better, I myself chose this one as the best of the two.
          Yeah I might have to have a look at it when I see one somewhere. Maybe when Bullseye hires me I will order one...

            I also have the Sinclair Priming Tool. It is designed for precision benchrest shooters that reload only a few rounds at a time. It is built like a tank, but only holds one primer at a time.

                I'm not aware of any cons with it. I always like to get opinions though
                With the Lee; if you use a lot of force; you end up cutting the side of your thumb when the primer finally slips in.

                I also had the top plastic break on mine after about six months. I was able to use the large primer plastic with the small rifle primers so I fell back on it.

                  The RCBS has a lot better feel of the primer being seated.

                    I use the Lee Auto Prime.

                      The only problem I had with Lee was breaking the lever the new model lever will replace the old. I like the primer tray of the old model simple not a big fan of touching primers. I think being able to use your shell holder is a plus on other models.

                        RCBS universal all the way. Lee in just not as nice to use.

                          RCBS is what I use now but hopefully soon I'll upgrade to the Sinclair Priming Tool

                            The Lee works fine and is cheap, but the handle is so small it sort of hurts when you get a tight primer.

                            My personal fav is the RCBS Universal hand primer. Expensive, but works great and is easy on the hands. Plenty of leverage.
