Anyone play with this new Lyman priming system?

I know UR did a review, but . . . Wondering if anyone here has checked it out.
 
I bought the Accu-Prime Manual Bench Priming Tool. I have only used it to prime 100 5.56 cases. It works well, and better than my Frankfort Arsenal Perfect Seat Hand Primer that kept on jamming and cost twice as much.

It's not as fast of course, but I'm a high drag, low speed kind of guy anyway.

A couple of tips:

I bought a RCBS RCBS Primer Tray 2 and a pair of rubber coated tweezers off Amazon, both to facilitate primer handling.

I wouldn’t believe a good damn thing that shill has on his YouTube videos. He’s one big commercial. Eric Cortina is getting there also.
 
I would also like to hear some thoughts on it from people that have used it. As soon as they are in stock somewhere other then lyman I'm going to grab one. My priming tool broke a couple days ago.
 
I’ve primed 200 cases so far. Loading the primer tube (by hand one at a time) takes the most time for me. The plastic ‘feeder’ to load primers only allows them to go in the tube sideways for me. Once the tube is loaded it’s quick to set primers. Very consistent for me. Overall easy to use. I previously used the RCBS hand primer. It was faster, but since I’ve only primed 200 with the Lyman I can’t comment on which one is better.

Does it use Dillion type primer feed tubes? I usually just sit in front of the TV and load multiple primer tubes. Very used to doing loading for pistols on a progressive.
 
No experience with the Dillon tubes. I’m only reloading for rifles. I was considering recruiting my kids to stuff the tubes while I prime. It would be nice to have a few extra tubes loaded up now that you mention it.
