Decapping die.

If you like/love to cycle the handle on your press a decapping die is great. After decapping 500 cases I realized in had to cycle the press another 500 times to resize my brass, then another 500 times to seat bullets. That's 1500 times to cycle the press to load 500 rounds. In the last few years I have gone to a Frankford Arsenal hand deprimer. This is something that you can do while watching TV. I loaned mine to a friend and he liked to so much he kept it, but he did hand me a brand new one still in the package as a replacement.
I took the little catch bottle off and pop the used primers into a cardboard box.

If i am simply decapping, I often use a Lee Hand press, works great:)
