I have only used a Pacific C single stage press in all of my reloading for 30+ years because it meets the needs of my shooting. So, the only knowledge I have of turret or progressive presses is from watching videos and comments on several gun boards. I prime on press and have no problems once I set up the Spangle primer attch.
I don't want to discuss on press vs off press/hand held priming- good, better, best.
I just wonder why it seems to me that the included priming systems seem to cause the most problems. Mamy folks use bench mounted or hand held primers
to overcome press auto prime problems.
Why do you, who use these presses, think this is? Is it maybe tolerence stack-up between case rim diameters and centered primer holes between brands of brass and the shell plates/holders? I don't think it would take more than .002 to .004 misalingment to cause a problem.
I thought some cold weather musing might help pass the time.
