Auto Primer Feeder

Recommended Posts

Somewhere I remember seeing an automatic primer feeder for progressive presses that looked a lot like a bullet or case feeder by design (a rotating disk that magically "righted" the primers and threw them down the tube leading to the press). Tried googling to no avail. Anyone have a brand name?

Sounds similar to the Lee primer feeder, but it's not automatic. You need to push each primer onto the primer arm.

No...that's what I'd call a "manual" primer feeder because you have to put the primers in, shake them to "right" them, etc. The device I'm talking about worked like a bullet feeder -- just throw boxes of primers into the unit and turn it on. Unit presumably ran until the primer tube was full and kept it that way as long as you had primers in the hopper.

Are you talking about the Dillon primer tube feeder that loads the tubes automatically or is there something else you have seen?

 

That looks cool, but that's not it. The thing I saw (in a video...which is what makes it virtually impossible to find anything via a traditional search engine) looked like a KISS bullet feeder (about that size). In fact, I thought it WAS a bullet feeder until I noticed at least a couple hundred primers rotating around in there.
