Harvey Deprimer Hand Held Depriming Tool

Post by Mickey on Sun Jan 01, 2012 5:28 pm

Thinking about ordering one of these to deprime before I tumble my .308 brass.
Anyone have any experience with one of these before I order?

Looks interesting! That would be another step I could do at home, instead of at the shop.

Looking for something like this because I am getting ready to change to a tumbler with stainless media. TDH just got his rolling and I am FLOORED with the results. The primer pockets are SPOTLESS!

Never seen one of these but I've been using a Lyman tong tool for years to deprime before I tumble cases. It will deprime any pistol case and rifles cases from .218 Bee to .30-06 (that's the smallest and largest I reload). I usually deprime while sitting on the couch watching TV.

Alright....
I got it in yesterday and it works just as described.
Took me about 25 pieces of brass to get the feel of how to align the brass on the pin.
After that, piece of cake. Rolled through a bag of old brass in no time. Simple, quick, and well built.
2 thumbs up. thumbs up
