Description
The Lee Auto Prime (part 90230, formerly marketed as the Auto Prime XR and still listed by Lee as the New Auto Prime) is Lee Precision’s hand-held priming tool for seating primers one case at a time with full feel of the primer bottoming in the pocket. It ships with a folding primer tray, a small and a large primer assembly and a moulded storage box that holds up to 18 shell holders, and it uses only Lee Auto Prime (hand-prime) shell holders, which are sold separately. It suits any reloader in Australia who wants more sensitivity than a press-mounted priming arm for rifle or handgun brass.
