Primer catcher - RCBS Turret - Review

[Cj10488]

So as we all know RCBS does not make the best primer catchers around and neither do most other companies. For some of us we can get great stuff semi local from inline fabrication but they don't have everything.

I was able to find a site that has a lot of upgraded primer catchers. I think he was a member on ar15.com or somewhere. But anyways. At Www.primercatchers.com I was able to find a great catcher for my rcbs turret press. Works wonders. Screws into the Primer arm holes on either side and sits almost flush. Only ran a dozen or so shells thru it but not a single one that didn't get caught and they all went right down into the garbage thanks to the design with the tubing chute.

Best part it was only like 15$ shipped. Fast shipping. Took about 3 or 4 days to get herem. Wish I would have found it sooner. I think they have options for all the presses that are out there but I can only speak for the RCBS Turret one

Thanks. Had I not been up all jight searching for a solution to the RCBS crap I would have never find them and I'm sure I'm not the only one out there who hates this barely usable primer catchers these presses ship with.

Thanks for the info. I have an old C&H press I got from my grandfather that I use as my single stage. It has no primer catcher on it. Well he makes one for that press and I just ordered it. Will sure beat holding a container behind the press to try and catch the spent primers.

Awesome. Glad to see someone else found something useful there. Lmk how things go when you get it. Curious if all his products are good or just the turret catch like I got. Btw I am not associated with them in any way. Just found them searching to fix my issue.

Neat -- someone's putting their 3D printer to work, not just making useless Yoda figurines.

Ordered Thursday and it arrived today.



Here it is next to my old plant container modified with zip ties and blue tape I used to catch primers.

Seems like a good upgrade to me. Who knows how long it will last but the price was reasonable and it fits perfect. Will make using my grandfathers old press more enjoyable so I say it's a win.

I was looking at the same one for my turret press. He has tons of different ones all over ebay. Good to know it works good.

He makes one for my Lyman All American, seems to work good.

Update.....

After ordering some items, and going through the "check out" process, there are the usual questions..... Name, shipping address, etc, etc, etc. One of the questions was "phone number". Well, i skipped that block as i didn't feel it was any of their business. It wouldn't let me proceed without filling in that block.

After thinking for a bit, i convinced myself that if there were any problems with the order that they may need to get a hold of me. So, reluctantly i entered my number.

Now, a month and a half later (actually, almost 2 months now!) i get daily texts telling me that Dr. Oz contacted them saying that he thinks i need a blue pill, and to click a link. Or, there is a problem with my FedEx shipment and i need to click a link.

Every text is from a different "phone number" (Yeah, i know they are probably all spoofed).

Every single day i get a BS text.

Lesson learned? Put it a fake number if you order anything from them!!!
