My uncle has had a stroke and its effecting his ability to prime cases. He's used a Lee hand primer forever, 30 plus years. I noticed his reloads are starting to have a lot of high (some very high) primers and I wanted to get him something for Christmas to make priming easy for him again. I use the RCBS APS primer on my Pro2000 and a Lee hand primer for low volume. I was thinking the APS would be a good idea for him since he would not have to handle individual primers, he lost some dexterity in the stroke too. I was thinking of getting him either the APS bench mounted or the press mounted primer system.
My uncle does just about everything in small batches of 100 or less so speed is not really an issue. The loss of dexterity makes me not want to get him anything that requires touching individual primers like a simple press mounted priming system common to most single stage presses. Good leverage, but I think he would have a hard time putting the primers into the cup.
I'm open to any other suggestions as well.
