[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 822929, member: 1521"] Randy, this is where the indicated K&M set's itself apart from all other priming tools. With it, I set exact crush on every single primer seated. You have a good point about potential striking distance variance with this, but it can be accounted for with another measure. To begin, uniform every pocket(get em all the same depth). Measure out & match needed primers by unseated height. Throw departed away. Zero the K&M indicator on each primer to each individual pocket(which should be about nothing of an adjustment by that point). Seat that primer in it's pocket to .002" crush as indicated. They are the same height from the casehead, AND preloading the pellet as recommended. Now mind your headspace. This is impossible to achieve through feel, I don't care how much you spend or how shiny or red communist any other tool is. It must be measured or it isn't happening(not even close). Only the K&M(Creighton Audette design) is capable right now & it's actually a **** good tool regardless. I am purely impressed with the intelligence behind it's design. And you might notice that while other priming tools are perpetually copied, every market is shared these days, the indicated K&M still stands alone. [/QUOTE]
