l was wondering if anybody has problems with Remington Small Pistol Primers and the new Lee Ergo Prime. I can be merrily priming cases then it all goes pear shaped with one of the primers decides to do its own thing and flips over in the guide channel or sits sideways right under the shell holder so it can be inadvertently crushed (not good l know).
Is this a known problem with Remington primers?
I bought some Czech primers at the show and hope they feed better.

Re: Remington Small Pistol Primers
Not sure if this is a problem with either Remington primers or the tool (though I've not tried the 'ergo') - using a standard Lee priming tool I have had primers turn sideways (CCI and Remington) under the shell holder...I think it's just one of those things that can happen, and that you just need to visually check they're straight before putting a case in the holder...

Re: Remington Small Pistol Primers
I have also had CCI primers turn sideways in the past so I think it's the Lee primer tool.
