getting primers right way up

[laurencen]

never saw any information on this topic, anyway every time I open a primer tray many are wrong way up, I pick up the ones I can use and then use masking tape over the upside down ones and flip it over, simple and they are easy to handle

There are inexpensive primer flippers which will orient primers, and many priming tool magazines are set up to allow all primers to be oriented as well.

using a Hornady progressive, needs the primers in tube, this was the best I could come up with a few years ago have to get one of those flip trays, wheres the best place to get one, any work better than another

I bought an RCBS primer tray. Dump the primers in the lower half, shake it around a bit and the primers will orient themselves anvil side up. Cover the lower tray with the upper tray and flip it over. Tap away with your Hornady primer tubes. That's what I do.

just checked Cabelas they do not show it, do wholesale sports have them?

Most any place that sells reloading supplies will have them. If you are in GTA check out LeBarons....most places likely wont put them on a website....they are like $3 or $4

Edit....see you are no where near GTA...lol! Wholesale sports reference

I keep long tweezers on the bench as well.
Sumtimes one primer will have a tendency to frustrate me.

thanks for the info, picked up a couple flippers and must say they work great, and the best part $2.99 is all it cost
