I totally agree with this one. Hand primers are NOT as good as a priming system with a set primer seating depth. I don't care how much "feel" you think you have in your hands while squeezing a couple handles together with your forearm torque setting. A set depth is definite. And IF, I were going/want to use hand tools to reload the only one out there now I would use would be the Lee Hand Press. I've had a couple 310 tools and like a lot here I started with a Lee Loader (30-06) and have zero desire to ever use either one again. That's why I "upgraded" to all this reloading gear/presses I have filling up this room of so called reloading "hobby stuff". And of course as in all things reloading YMMV......
