Primer seating

I guess at one time or another have tried about all on the market. Still use a press on occasion, but mostly a Lee or RCBS, Lee gives a better feel in hand, but that is a personal thing, RCBS seems more positive feel. But whatever the personal feeling, feel hand seating is best for total dependability. Still MIL-SPEC allows 6 misfires per million. When you get one of those six, just hope it isn't during a Bear charge.

I remember one year the Nat'l Police PPC Championships held in Bloomington, IN
Al Sayge the defending Nat'l Champ at the 7 Yd. Line, got 3 rounds misfired, blew the primers and locked up his gun. The cartridge cases didn't have flash holes.....
This was out of a lot of 1 million rounds purchased by the City of NY for their pistol team. Odds and Stats...
