Works well, dosen't fit for small primer
works well, only issues were that the depriming pin is to thick for depriming 6.5x47 Lapua brass. Chucked it up in a power drill and tried to sand away to thin it down. Also, when pointing, say level with the ground, primers fall out of the hole. When you point it down to de prime, the plastic receptacle pops off and all the dirty primers go everywhere. When you get in a groove, depriming goes quicker than on a press.
