I own this tool. I had tried a few from different manufacturers (Hornady, RCBS, etc.) and found this one to be the highest quality tool for hand priming. It is as you said, good and solid with a little bit of heft and it has not let me down. I expect that it will last me a long time with no problems. I find it to be very consistent as well. I paid a bit more money for it than the other hand tools but still affordable and worth every cent.

I picked one of these up after my progressive press primer was damaged, and I was waiting on the replacement parts. It works great, and the price to quality is hard to beat! It is really nice especially when you come across a case that didn't get swaged (enough). No need to interrupt an entire progressive operation. As far as I'm concerned it's a must have in any hand loading arsenal, even if only for a backup if something goes south.

Been using a Mk1 Lee Autoprime since Day 1 of my reloading journey which began at least 20 years ago. Regular stripping, cleaning and greasing the bearing surfaces has kept it going with absolute reliability for tens of thousands of cycles, both for large primers and small. Personally I prefer the thumb actuation over the brake lever type, as I find the thumb type to have more feel when coming to the end of the stroke. With small primers it’s all too easy to force a primer into a crimped primer pocket and waste the primer. With thumb actuation I can stop before it’s too late and rescue the primer. Over the last few years, for Christmas, I’ve been given a Lyman Ram Prime tool, a Hornady L’n’L hand primer and I’m pretty sure another likewise quality priming tool for when my old Lee Autoprime finally shuffles off this mortal coil. They’re still sat in the cupboard waiting to be pressed into service. Maybe next year. I like the fact that the Frankfort Arsenal kit, as well as the above are analogue tools, requiring nothing more than hand operation. Our fingers and thumbs are much better at feeling resistance and pressure than any multi-hundred dollar digitech gizmo, and if looked after properly, will last the entire lifetime of the user. Guaranteed!

I have always hand primed. Started with a Lee, after that broke it's toggle link and parts weren't available I bought a Lyman. The Lyman was leaving the primers a little proud but there are a pair of stops on the operating handle that I filed down to get the proper seating depth. What I like about it the most is it uses standard shell holders and you can buy extra primer trays. I have 4 total, 1 for each type of primer. It saves a lot of time and mess when changing calibers. I like the Frankford set, if you could purchase extra feed trays it could be a winner although a little pricy.

As I read through all the comments, no one addressed the issue that to hold the brass in the shell holder, you have to start to depress the handle while holding the brass. That is with the primer tray located above the brass you are starting to insert the primer. I dislike this design as it seems backwards. Lee’s old cheaply made hand primer positions the primer tray above the brass which is just pushed in and doesn’t require to be held onto until pressure from squeezing the lever/handle is applied to keep the brass in the shell holder. This looks like a well made piece of machinery, with some nice features. But, Why didn’t they position the primer tray in the same orientation as Lee’s hand primer? RCBS’s older design (which I purchased years ago and gave away, as it had the primer tray in the same orientation as this FA one. I think it’s a design flaw. Lee’s old, cheaply made, pot metal plastic parts hand primer, works great. I have two, one set up for large primers, and the other for small. Pick the right shell holder, load the primer tray with your primers of choice, position the brass into the shell holder (no holding of the brass as with other models of hand primers ~ the Lee’s enclosed back side holds the brass so it doesn’t drop out), push the thumb lever in to seat and release. Pull the brass out, check depth, and repeat. It by no means a perfect hand primer, but for me it’s design is correct, and safer. My .02 cents only. I’m glad there are other hand primers available to suit each and every one of us. Thanks for the review, but I had to agree that this one sounded a tad bit like a infomercial… . Sorry, but it did.😔

I've used several different systems over the 60+ years I've been reloading but this is my favorite. It's quick, easy and relatively safe compared to other systems. I recently acquired a 22 Hornet and naturally went straight to the FA hand primer for my first batch of reloads. Guess what? Despite having shell holders that will fit a number of cartridges most of us will never see in life, the FA hand primer doesn't seem to have a shell holder for the Hornet, which is rather odd, being that it is still a rather popular cartridge. This is likely due to the base not being interchangeable (to my knowledge) with any other center fire cartridge. I did find a shell holder in the set which worked after a fashion but had to end up ordering a separate Lee shell holder. Fortunately, the Lee Auto Prime shell holders will fit in the FA hand primer if you have a round which doesn't fit the "most popular" rounds out there.

I've been using the primer seater on my Forster Co-Ax for years. It has a great feel when seating the primers and always seats to a perfect depth. The only issues are setting it up and adjusting the 3 shellholder "jaws" can be a bit tedious to get just right, and you have to handle each primer individually to place them in the primer ram. I also use the Safety Prime system on my Lee presses which works good, except for the technique aspect of feeding the primers and of course it never loads the last 2 primers. I've been looking at one of these for a while to speed up the process from my Co-Ax, but after reading a lot of the reviews on Amazon and Midway, I'll stick with what I know works perfectly, regardless of the quirks.

It seems to me that the shell holders are way too loose to the brass and the primers are not centered in the tool. measured slots in the shell holders and the #11 measured out at .527 brass rim measured out at .509 on average, tried s&b winchester and remington brass outcome was the same. the tool itself seems great like the heft and the ability to set depth, did i get a poor set of holders???

I test the seating consistency using an accuracy one primer comparator tool and because it does not have positive stop it is inconsistent. Also because the runout is poor it disfigures the primers being seated if they have thinner cups like do most match grade primers. I have gone back to the forester press priming tool as it gives me the most consistent seating depth -.005 +/- .0005 so far. It indexes on the case head -.005 every time. No need for primal rights comparison primer seater because the jury is in on the primer optimum depth @ -.005

I have used various hand priming tools for years, without a single issue. But ☝️ Safety first. Unintended detonation can occur. Highly unlikely, but can happen. I use a light goat skin work glove on the hand actuating the lever. Like the white ones from Harbor Frieght. I start the primer into the pocket & tip the tool away from myself upon fully seating the primer. This keeps the open case mouth pointed away from me & the primers in the tray, slide to the opposite end of the tray, away from the one being seated. Detonation of one primer has a surprising amount of power, can damage the tool & sends micro debris flying. I do not know what a detonation of an entire tray would do. But I bet it wouldn’t be good. Load safe !

Mine also marrs the primer like.. not sure how or if it affects the load but its the first primer seater I have used that leaves marks like this on the primers. If you press really hard the marks are even more visible. Concerned about adding inconsistencies to hand loads from "crushed" or "impacted" primers. Its tough to get any consistency when the tool allows increase of depth based on hand pressures despite the setting on the dial? How do you measure hand pressure for consistency? At least with the press method you get consistent seating pressure and it leaves no marks. I'll give it a thumbs up for being much less painful to operate than the Lee hand held primer seater (even that cheapo didn't maar the primers like this one), but in the end It looks like I will end up with the forster bench primer.

I use a Forster co-ax priming tool and sometime my Lyman Amarican 8 to if I only load a small amount of cases loading 9.3, .270, .303,6mm mus and 357. I prefer the forster if a do a lot and for the 357 it work better

Far left is the 45-70, next is the wonderful old 375 H&H, which I've used to take several bears.
