Hammer style bullet puller - Accidental discharge.

[Old Navy]

I started with a Lee hand loader back in the 60's and had more than a few detonate loading .30-30 with that priming rod and a hammer.

Mag primers were the worst to.

Are you talking about seating primers?
Not familiar with that Lee seating tool. Do you have a pic?
I thought this post was about pulling bullets with an inertia hammer. But a seating tool involving a rod and hammer caught my attention.
