I bought a Lee Autoprime in the 80's, and used it for many years without any explosions, it would occasionally cock a primer or seat one upside down. This causes intestinal distress as if one of those primers goes off...
I bought a RCBS APS hand priming tool. It took a little while to get used to it, and I experience fatigue a little sooner with that tool. Nonetheless, NO cocked primers or upside down primers, which, for me at least, cause more aggravation than the 3 cent pellet is worth.
I feel that the RCBS APS tool is a better tool than the Lee, but you pretty much have to buy a strip loader these days, so altogether it is not a cheap expenditure.
