Wyatt Earp SASS#1628L Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I love using the LEE Bench Priming tool but hated the folding primer tray. The "open/lock/on" switch was finicky, often resulting in primers flowing out the chute before the tray was seated. At 10 to 12 cents per primer nowadays I hate losing one. I have the RCBS hand held tool, but I find the "universal" shell holder less than so, often launching a shell across the room. I pulled the RCBS tray and found the attachment point identical to the LEE system except for the height. A few swipes with a file and Xacto blade made for a perfect fit. Of course it won't fit the RCBS anymore, but that was solved by ordering a new tray from Amazon for 10 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedalia Dave Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Bet you could make a nice on/off device out of a brass nail. Drill a hole in the right spot and it will prevent primers from going down the chute till you are ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyatt Earp SASS#1628L Posted January 11, 2023 Author Share Posted January 11, 2023 The RCBS tray has a little slider (see that green nub) built into the lid that prevents the primer flow . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My RCBS Hand primer doesn't have that little slider. Come to think about it my has a round tray and not a square one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frontier Lone Rider Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I also have moved to the LEE Auto Bench Prime. The 1st one I had the top that holds the shell holder in place ripped right off, separated from the body. I tossed it as I had ordered three by then. I guess I don't have to use that much pressure to ensure the primers are seated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
