loading primers into primer tube

Is there an easier or quicker way to load primers into a primer tube?View attachment 1755123
Dillon primer flip tray
your rcbs one works the same but the Dillon big brass one is bigger and easier, more room

But honestly, I usually just pre-prime with my RCBS hand held, the Dillon sometimes has adjustment issues or if it skips a primer powder goes everywhere
so pre-priming is one step ahead to help avoid this.
---
with the RCBS handheld, you have already flipped all the primers over, and by then it's ready to start priming anyway, so a step is eliminated in effect by then not having to prime a tube and transfer over and prime anyway.
--- Personal choice I suppose, just the way I do it if doing 100 and under
 
Plenty of options..I use the Dillon primer tube loader for close to 20 years..a must in my book for loading primer for a 650-700 and my 1050.
There is cheaper that work good also..but the Dillon is in a class by itself.
 
Don't even bother with the shake rattle and roll. I dump them in the tray, pick up the ones that are correct side up, then put the lid on and flip the tray. Resume picking up the rest. Shaking can be a PITA. Just when you try to get the last one turned over, somebody else turns turtle. Maybe I'm just a klutz.
Thanx for that. I use a Dillon tray. Did your trick just today.
