[QUOTE="Equalizer, post: 2495419, member: 111343"] WOW! I’ve heard of guys popping one off but not a tube full! Glad he’s recovering. I have used three or four hand style priming tools over the years but they all started to get stiff/janky and or broke so I abandoned them. I started priming one at a time on my Redding Big boss press. I was a little skittish at first but I have really, really whacked em in there and no pops yet. 🤞And like a previous poster I too have seated primers upside down AND deprimed them too with no pops. I recently got a Dillon 550 C and have only loaded a couple hundred rounds through it. Good advice from those using this machine though and I’ll start cleaning the tubes every use now and I’ll keep the slide bar and the primer tube mounted to the machine itself cleaned as well. As to the storage of primers & static electricity…. How to store? I know a guy who stores his by the thousands, in the original packaging, in steel ammo cans…. 😳🤷🏻♂️ [/QUOTE]
