    Well good news.
    I sent a email off to Lyman US and they replaced free of charge. New one arrived today. First thing I did was check the priming plunger and its perfect, so I'm happy.
    bully, Micky Duck and wanneroo like this.

    Glad you got it sorted! I was tossing up between Lyman and RCBS for hand priming, chose RCBS in the end. Either way, good to see customer support that actually solve the issue. Reloading brands have been amazing with CS in my experience so far!

    Have a read of this article by John Barsness, a well respected American gun writer.

    Nice to see that you got it sorted @winaa good old customer service came to the table. @R93 fix would have worked a treat as well! If you still have the old one, that is exactly what I’d do to it now! So that there is no mix up at a latter date.

    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.

    @Sideshow I had to return the old primer to Lyman. I could have easily fixed it myself but thought I should have brought it to their attention, who knows how many others where like this

    Wow, I wore out my Lee Priming Tool that came with my reloading kit and replaced it with a Lyman a couple of years ago.

    I load 3000-4500 rounds a year and have never seen this.

    Pleased you got it sorted.
