Recently purchased the Forster Co-Ax bench priming tool and find it to be a great product. I have a number of Forster products for reloading and find them to be of great quality. However, I was skeptical at first after reading some negative review but their are some very positive review as well. From experience with Forster I decided to give it a try as I figured the negative reviews were due to operator error and not the fault of the priming tool itself. It does require one to become familiar with its proper operation in order to use it as intended. The shell holder jaws are easily set up and adjusted to the cartridge being primed and once familiar with the process it is very fast to accomplish and no shell holders are required. It is also simple to change primer sizes. I did get the optional primer tube loader which works as a champ and greatly speeds up the loading of the primer tubes. This priming tool also provides a very precise feel of the primer as it is being seated and when it bottoms out in the shell casing. I'm very pleased with this tool even though ot does require practice to benefit from its full potential. This is the best priming tool I have used and I have had and tried a number of different ones over the years.
