RCBS Universal Primer Seater

[longwinters]

Just went to Shields in Appleton WI and checked out their hunting/reloading area. I was surprised how jacked up their prices were on reloading componants and how few rifles they had. No more Sako's, Kimbers or other higher end rifles.

But I did see the RCBS Universal Primer tool. No more changing out shell holders....I liked that idea a lot. So it came home with me...and I'll see how it works out. I did try some 7m-08 brass in it and it worked real well. But we will seee in the long run.

Been using one since they came out. They are truly great.

I used the Lee counterpart for years, and it always did a decent job but I bought the RCBS version a few years ago and like it much more. It's just a better made tool, and the elimination of shell holders is a real plus.

I've had an RCBS Universal Primer Seater for some years now. I see that Lee has released a replacement to the old Auto-Prime. However, it still requires separate shell holders for each cartridge family (http://www.leeprecision.com/cgi/catalog/browse.cgi?1298944320.3035=/html/catalog/primtool.html).
