NEW AUTO PRIME

PT1204
WHEN PRIMING CASES, HANDLE AS A LOADED GUN. NEVER POINT AT YOURSELF OR ANYONE ELSE. PRIMERS WILL EXPLODE IF
SHOCKED OR CRUSHED. WEAR EYE & EAR PROTECTION AT ALL TIMES WHEN PRIMING OR HANDLING PRIMERS.
WARNING If you feel an increase in pressure on the lever earlier than normal, you have a problem and continued pressure may
result in a primer detonation. STOP pressing and determine what is causing the early increase in pressure. It is likely a tipped primer,
a military case that does not have its crimp completely removed, or attempting to prime an already primed case.

NEW AUTO-PRIME
The New Auto-Prime ( patented ) is designed to reduce the likelihood of
a mass detonation when priming cases. This is accomplished by remotely
locating the mass of primers during the priming operation. A separate
elevator raises a single primer from the tray and presents it for priming.
We have tested the tool by intentionally setting off a variety of brands
and types of primers. Our testing has demonstrated that wearing safety
glasses and hearing protection will prevent serious injury.

h However, all types of federal brand
large primers frequently caused the entire tray to explode
with sufficient force to cause serious and painful injuries.
