You would win that bet @Rushy

Oh la dee da bloody hand primer ay!

Remove all live primers from hand prime, don saftey glasses, deprime with whatever you have or you could remove the stem from your die and give it a "tap" down the case to deprime.

wasn't Ernie the short arse one ?

Get hold of a case trimmer. Can't remember if it is the lyman or lee. Put the rod down the case and tap the primer out. Otherwise take the decapping pin out of your die and use it to tap the primer out. Be gentle.

Yup, should be able to remove case holder and case from the hand primer. May even be able to quietly pry the primer out from the bottom with something like a scriber.

I've de-primed quite a few live primers with sizing die, never had one go off.

Put the handle in a vice & tap it out with the stem out of your die, if you can take the shell holder & stuck case out of the hand primer you might be able to twist the primer out with some needle nose pliers?

Hey Pengy did you get any of my PM's whilst travelling. And yes I agree with Rushy, possibly mot the first time you have fucked up.

Ernie? Should be Dick?, got it out yet? You could of course use it as an excuse to purchase a whole new set up?

Tip of a chainsaw file works well for most things if it's out of the press

Pengy what type of priming tool are you using?
Is there a way to disassemble the handprimer to pull the push-rod out from underneath?

I got the primer our easy as , by putting case in a vice and gently tapping through with de capping rod out of the die. Cheers all

I got your messages Boz, but too late to act on it. I did get to meet a rather pretty lady at that I assume is your daughter.
