And sorry for double posting. After I posted I checked and it was not there so I thought I messed up somehow.

Anyway, thanks for all the suggestions. I have probably loaded 300+ rifle loads by handling the primer and never had a problem with a squib load either.

I feel better now that I know that it is considered not a big deal. I would hate to have one day look at a 7 pointer and have a load not go off because of my primer! From the sound of it this does not seem to be such a huge issue. The twesers idea is a good one! I will see if I find a pair that is easy to handle.
