Thread: Hydraulic Primer removal

Great what you can do with water pressure.There's generally no problem depriming boxer crimped primers using the fl die but with Berdan I simply use a sharpened nail punch & angle it in the firing pin dent, piercing it then levering it out, I just use a ground back drill bit ( to go over shell anvil) to take off military crimp. It's less messy & just as quick when one uses a holder that takes multiple shells.
I get great accuracy from the military cases & is cheaper.
