I'm curious as to how many folks use the priming attachment for their reloading press for priming cases versus using a stand-alone priming tool? If a stand-alone tool is used, what are you using?
I have always used the priming attachment for my press, but don't like having to pull up on the press handle to seat the primer which, if I don't put my foot on the lower shelf, tends to lift the bench up off the floor (and it's no light-weight bench). I know I can reverse my press stroke orientation, but then I would have the problem when sizing and de-priming cases. I'm straddling the fence on whether I should spend the bucks on a priming tool.
