And the first time you use it, just make sure you don't try to pull your press handle all the way down. I can't recall ever being able to set it up for any cartridge where I can actually lower the handle all the way without crushing a primer.
I think it's made that way on purpose.
You shouldn't try to set up a Ram Prime so that your press handle can possibly bottom out. At that point, you are getting way too much leverage. You really ought be to able to feel the primer bottoming out on its own, and that point will not be the same for every piece of brass. You can't feel that if you have stupid amounts of mechanical leverage. You might try screwing the thing down much, much farther than you have it. There should be a marked difference in feel.
If your priming setup CAN'T crush the occasional primer, then it can't fully seat all your primers in mixed brass. Your hand should determine the stop point, not the physical limit of your press travel. That's my opinion, anyway. I know plenty of people prefer to set their primers exactly 0.004" below flush, or whatnot. But in most of the 9mm FC brass I have, that's not even close to being fully seated. (They typically bottom out somewhere between 0.006 and 0.012!) On the other side of the coin, some of the 38 R-P cases I have had, the primers are already slightly crushed just to get them flush.
Thanks for the comments...pretty much loading for uber precision here and I'm more looking for a "feel" and precision/consistent loading and uniformity than speed.
I get great feel on my Breechlock press. You prime on the upstroke, so the mechanical leverage is not too great. You can adjust the lever shorter, too. This lets you squeeze the primer in with the lever on your palm and your fingertips on the inside of the front of the press frame. Fingers have way more feel and articulation than hands and arm, alone. Heck, I threw my Lee handprimer in the garbage. With my Lee hand primer, I had to press with my thumb. For one thing, thumbs don't feel as good as your fingertips. And the leverage was not enough. On a tight pocket, things went from hard, to harder, to "I hope the primer is seated now, because I'm getting tired of this and I can't feel anything, anymore."
I think the main problem with consistent priming on a Ram unit is that your hand is free floating on the handle at the end of a downstroke. Your feel will primarily come from your arm and palm. And as said before, there can also be quite a bit more mechanical leverage there than is ideal.
