Just got it in. Nice looking and feeling kit so far. More to follow if anyone's interested.
Like how it comes with a full shell holder kit

And it has a square primer tray.
RCBS took years to figure this one out.
Looks like solid kit.

Still using this one Arthur. Maybe I can finally put to rest

Curious as to what your opinion is on the FA priming tool.
Ive had one for months and its my favorite priming system to date. Before this I primarily used the Sinclair hand primer or the RCBS bench primer with the primer tubes. The priming unit on the FA is made of metal and is heavy and very beefy. I have big hands and I have to stretch them out to lower the primer ram all the way. Not a big deal to me but it may be for someone with small/med hands. I like the fact that its quick and easy to change from small primer to large primer. Also the shell plates pop in and out in a snap. The machine comes with all the replacement shell plates you need right in the box. The Sinclair would take a few minutes if I had to change anything around. Sort of an annoyance. The primer feed system works great from the plastic tray. Once you get the right angle of the tray, the primers feed reliably. You can also adjust the primer seating depth as well which is a nice bonus.
It’s a solid system and I love it. I don’t foresee anything breaking so it should last for many years to come.

I have been using one for a while, tried the adjustable seating depth but different brass requires re-adjustment.
They should of put micrometer marks on the adjustment so you can return it to a previous setting.
Set it to max depth and just feel the primer bottom out.

good to hear. I'm doing more and more prep work away from my presses, so being able to deprime, trim, prime, etc. while not sitting at my bench makes the work go much quicker and I can do it when I travel away from home. I've got a few FA items in the past year or two and have been pretty happy with most (mainly the stainless pin tumbler)
