[QUOTE="marchboom, post: 1883012, member: 10562"] You can definitely feel when a primer is seating properly and if the primer pocket is tight, normal or loose. My suggestion is to attach a section of foam (the type used to wrap hot water pipes) to the handle. Makes it more comfortable. Also, just before you place a case in the shell holder check to see if you operated the handle enough to pick up a primer. If you didn't the ram will get stuck in the case primer pocket and it will be a bear to get out. Otherwise this tool is great. I mounted mine to a piece of 3/4" Baltic birch plywood so I can clamp it to the bench. As far as the handheld seaters are concerned, It got more difficult as time went by. My hand will only take so much before it says, "Enough already!" The long handle of the RCBS Automatic priming tool gives you a much better feel. [/QUOTE]
