Bench Top Primer Seater

[jvw2008]

This may sound like a P&M statement, but I'm really tired of hand priming my cases and frustrated with the inconvenience of the alternatives I've found so far.  Initialy I started with a Lee and then a Hornady tray hand primer. switched to the CoAx press incorporated primer system, then to a Sinclair hand held, and now back to the CoAx press.  I like the CoAx press because I can get very consistent seating depths with the unit, but it is a PIA to individually load primers into.

I want sensitivity during seating, consistent and adjustable seating, and not hand cramps after a batch of 300 cases. Oh, I also don't want the process to take forever, and I don't want to pay $600 for a Primal Rights competition seater.  Ha! Ha1

So if the Competition Seater is out due to cost, what other alternatives do you recommend?

I use a RCBS Bench Primer.  Has the automatic primer feed and I get a good "feel" on the seating depth.

I've been looking at them.  Their construction (at least in pictures) looks to be more sturdy then the Lee bench model.

+1 on the RCBS, very good feel seating primers...

They do have a lite version out now, I may get that when I have the funds.

I saw that Wilson and was interested until I watched video on YouTube. You have to run it off your press and I was "unim-pressed" ?

This is what I prime everything with. Works great. And simple to set up and use. I'm guessing they have been 15 to 20 thousand primers ran through it with zero issues.

I use a Dillon 550 I have had for years. Works great. Nothing special needed. Would be cheaper to buy one than one of those cool Primal Rights priming set ups. LOL I wouldn't give him a dime anyways.

Wasn't there a thread on here where everyone said that you had to hand prime if you wanted precision? LOL

The best primer seater bar non is the RCBS bench seater, the one shown with the Hollands Jerry posted.  You don need the micrometer add on as the seating feel is very good.

Just stick with the tried and true primer seater on your Co-Ax. You know it's the best one anyway. ;0)

Yup, that's what I use too.
