    I hand prime carefully with a tray full of primers.

    Is the bench primer likely to come up for sale?

    I prime on all my presses , I only use the hand primer , if it misses a primer etc ... never hand prime , I will get a hand de-primer though ....

    Year I like the write ups for the K&N but can't see if it comes with a tray. Don't really want to be handling primers

    Which is no doubt more dangerous than handling primers

    I use one of these that I scored off ebay for $120 landed (second hand)
    WAAAAY better than a hand primer IMO. I have one of those I've never used because I didn't like my mates one compared to this. Heaps faster, plenty of feel and safer.
