Forester Co-Ax Press question

[NoahbodyImportant]

How is the primer seater on the Forster Co-Ax Press?

Is it better than my Lee hand primer?

Thanks

Jeff

The primer seater on your press would be slower and have less sensitivity for primer depth than the Lee, but will work just fine.

I agree, it works great. But, I doubt you will use it. The Lee has more feel.

I used the Co-Ax to prime for about a year, buying a handheld priming tool was a great investment, it is very easy to crush the primers because the mechanical advantage is way more than a handheld priming tool, also the with a handheld tool it is very easy to feel when the primer hit rock bottom/actually it's top but you get the idea.

I went the other way, from priming with the Lee tool to doing it on the press... but only because the POS Lee handle broke. One of these days I'll pony up for the 21st Century or Sinclair tool and be back to priming by hand. To be honest, though, the Co-Ax's priming system suits me just fine since I only use it for a single caliber.
