Anyone's hands get sore after priming brass?

I'd like to hear about it.

I use the new Lee hand primer, and it has good moment of angle, but after between 150 and 200 large rifle primers, my hand starts hurting in the web. So yes.

I used the Lee hand prime for years until it neglected to fully seat some primers in different rifles, so I switched to the table top version and no more problems. No more sore hands, either.

I have had an auto primmer on my press (RCBS) since day 1 (about 50 years ago). I can prime 100 rounds in as little as 10 minutes, barring any unforeseen problems. What are you using, a hand decapping and primming tool?

Stop wanking before using the priming tool

If anyone is interested, my condition is called Dupuytren's contracture, it is a thickening that occurs around the tendons in your palm. I am only 50, it is now so bad the only fix is surgery, I already had carpal tunnel surgery.
Thank you PrimalRights for your generosity.
It's appreciated.

Cheers.

My grandfather had the same thing. Could hardly open his hand. Middle and last two fingers were always bent at 90 degrees. He always worked with his hands and worked hard. Died at 95 five weeks after his wife.

Not since I bought this little jewel.

I like mine a lot also. No more hand priming for me.

I live alone during the week, so I have a strong grip. Hand never gets tired or sore. Did I mention that I am a mechanic, that's why the strong grip.

About four or five more years and then I hunt full seasons, instead of weekends and holidays. Stay in touch.

yes!

To be clear, I'm not having this issue... but rather I'm looking for someone that is.

With my old Lee if I prime more than 100, my hand gets sore. Just bought a new Frankford Arsenal I have not tried yet. My RCBS does not hurt my hands.

 

[PatriotHenry]

That was what I was after. Thank you @MagnumManiac.

I have a brand new Competition Primer Seater sitting here with your name on it. No charge. You'll never buy (or want to use) another priming tool as long as you live. Just PM me your real name, then put an order in for a CPS on our website. You'll check out for the full amount, but you will not be charged. In the comments section during checkout... reference this post and I'll see that you do not pay a cent. I hope this helps set the tone for you in 2021.

Happy New Year!
