Is there any inherent danger to priming a case after cleaning it and prior to sizing it. I have the RCBS benchtop priming system and I really like the feel of it and the adjustments that I get on the depths of seating. It is a lot easier to prime using the RCBS than the Hor LnL AP priming system (I don't have to worry about refilling the primer tube every 100 cases because I load about 20 primer strips at a time). What I would like to do is to decap and clean my brass (using a universal decap pin so I do not have to lube my cartridger prior to decapping) that way I get to clean the primer pockets as well (even though most people say it is not necessary) then use my Hor LnL AP to resize (no decap or prime), charge and expand, bullet feed, seat, then taper crimp, or powder check then bullet feed and seat & crimp. I only worry about my .357 Mag cases and my rifle cases as far as trimming is concerned, even though I always check the other pistol brass for min/max after cleaning. My .357 Mag is my only wheel gun.
Of course I would not prime the brass prior to reloading it, ie, it would be done in the same loading session. I use a LnL AP case feeder and while I am not afraid of a primer going off during case feeding into the LnL AP, I am concerned about the resizing process (with the decap pin removed from the resizing die) of a primed case.
Thanks
