I have never had one go off either.

It is still a good idea to have at least eye protection on while reloading. It only takes once to cause problems. I figure since it is always possible to have a primer go off during normal seating even though it is very remote why take the chance? The same goes for removing a live primer from the case. Using eye protection is a simple thing to do and one day it may even save your sight.

Seeing that black spot in your vision where the scar tissue is from an eye injury is not fun or cool. 40 years later and it is still there. I could have been worse and no vision in the same eye could have been possible. I wear eye protection for lots of things I didn't use it for at one time. Maybe someone will be smarter than I was long ago.
