Lee ACP (automatic case primer) press

[Rory]

Does anyone use the Lee automatic case primer press and if so, would you recommend it?
I currently use the Lee Auto Prime (handheld primer), but I'm getting a bit annoyed with the variation in primer seated depth depending on the effort required to get the primer seated.

Difficult to find an honest review of the Lee ACP (where it doesn't feel like the reviewer is just singing the praises).
So, good, bad and ugly, if you use one, would you recommend it?

Maybe try You Tube? The system looks as if it should work.

I have used many methods in my time. On the press using the spring loaded arm that went up a slot inside the ram, a Lyman 310 Tool, a Lee Auto Prime handheld with the round tru, the RCBS 9460 Auto Priming Tool with the long lever that has the primers in a tube, the old grey metal Lee that had screw in "heads" for each size of case, knocking the case onto the primer on a Lee Loader, and maybe others.

The "best" in one sense was the RCBS 9460 as it had the longer lever and so the greatest mechanical "advantage". So do I use that now? No! I use either a Lyman 310 tool or a Lee Auto Prime handheld with the round tray. But the I likely reload less than fifty rounds a time. When I used to load three hundred at a time I used the RCBS 9460. Which before anyone asks I sold long ago!
