[QUOTE="LRHWAL, post: 2717072, member: 5418"] At one point I did lot of things including primer pocket correction etc. I also measured some primers and started wondering what I needed to measure; I assumed the cup depth. I seated with a Lee Autoprime and still do (although I intend to acquire a bench mounted Lee). With great SD's I have to wonder what is really likely to improve with any of the other products. If you feel the need to adjust depth without feel then a press mounted unit like this SHOULD work: [URL]https://leeprecision.com/ram-prime.html[/URL] - Lee Ram Prime. I have a similar RCBS unit from when I started loading as a teenager and you can adjust the depth by screwing the unit holding the shellholder (i.e. the case you are priming) up and down. I still use it for cartridges where I have been unable to find a Lee Autoprime shellholder. You are handing the primers so need to be aware of that, although in my experience it is not so critical. As a kid I would use tweezers as the manuals said not to handle primers. I guess with the case lube of the day contamination was a risk if it was on your fingers. I just wipe my hands before picking them up. [/QUOTE]
