Which hand held priming tool to buy?

[Reloadernoob]

I have the Lee handheld and bench primers as well as the RCBS universal handheld. Either of the handhelds work fine (the Lee is half the price) for me for 50 or less, otherwise the bench prime to save from hand cramps.

Have had my old Lee 35+ years, still using it.

You're still using this 11 YEAR OLD THREAD, so I believe it.

I like my RCBS, certainly more than the Hornady that blew up in my hand

I am in the market for a good quality hand held tool that has a magazine. The new Lee tool has quite a few bad reviews. What say you good powder burners? What is the tool of choice?

Hands down, no question: 21st Century!

I grew up on the "old Lees" as everyone affectionately calls them; but was quite glad to see the new ones come out...one which is now my work horse. Yet, with new heretofore non-fired cases, particularly Lapua .284, I purchased a RCBS bench primer to get me thru the first 3-4 reloading episodes...'til I can comfortably use the "new" Lee again!
