Hi guys, its been a while.
I have a problem getting caps and would like to know if there is a conversion for my lyman that will allow me to use small pistol primers. I can easily get primers and am using them at the moment with good results but it involves me picking the anvil out, not the safest thing to do but gives great ignition and easy to get.
I have made my own nipe to take primers with the anvil saftly in its place. I don't think the hammer will have enough force to ignite the primer as it takes a good blow from a hammer to make it work.
Any ideas?
