Overview

Designed for reloaders who want priming control at the press, this unit lets you prime on the up-stroke for a more sensitive feel and added leverage. It includes easy-to-change punches for both large and small primers, making it a practical choice for working with different primer sizes. The unit fits all brands of single-stage presses and is the same tool supplied with the Lee Challenger and Hand Press Kit. It may not work with some other manufacturers’ shellholders if the priming hole is not large enough for the Ram Prime.

Pros

  • Includes easy-to-change punches for both large and small primers.
  • Fits all brands of single-stage presses.
  • Same priming tool supplied with the Lee Challenger and Hand Press Kit.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Fits all brands of single stage presses, but compatibility with other manufacturers’ shellholders is not guaranteed because the priming hole may be too small.
  • Designed for priming on the up-stroke, so it changes the feel and workflow compared with other priming setups.
  • Includes easy-to-change punches for both large and small primers, but primer size changes still require swapping the punch.
  • This is the same tool supplied with the Lee Challenger and Hand Press Kit, so buyers who already own those setups may be duplicating an included component.
