The other day I bought a Classic Lee loader in 44Mag. They sell for under $14 so I thought I would try one on a lark. I wasn't expecting much from this system but was really surprised with how well the system actually worked. The thought of using a hammer to install the primer did bother me, and I did not have to load too many rounds before I found out just how much pounding it takes to set off a primer. On the sixth load I heard a very loud bang when seating the primer. I got some black marks on my thumb and forefinger, but other than that it was a non event. For the rest of the rounds I wore leather work gloves when installing the primers.
