Let me guess one for small rifle and the other for large rifle?Quote:

I have read they only really work well with the Lyman shell holders, but I don't have any so can not talk to that.
That sounds about right although it's fine with federalQuote:

I found the WR primers a pain to seat (in Win brass). Ended up uniforming all pockets, and adjusting priming tool (Hornady) to seat a little deeper than usual to try get them in. Apparently shell holder can also make a difference.
Lee press
Lee ergo hand primer
No small rifle. Both for LR but one has a shellholder for 30.06 head size family, the other shellholder for 375 H&H head size family.Quote:

Exactly why I bought a new tool. After asking round my F-Open team mates, three of them wholeheartedly recommended the 21st Century tool. Couldn't be happier with it- power with feel and instantly adjustable in one thou increments for seating depth. Very well made, you can just tell the moment you pick it up.Quote:

The RCBS Rock chucker, I really rate that press-its a beast.
