Something to think on:

If it doesn't work, to produce the UTMOST accuracy, benchrest folks don't use it.

I see Lee priming tools at BR matches. Actually, I see, in this order of prevalence, K&M, Sinclair, Lee, RCBS, Others.

Lee's stuff is very good. The problem that some folks have with it is that if you insist on forcing stuff, even when the force is excessive to the case at hand, it will break.

The K&M primer is steel, and is SOLID in feel.

I own 1 K&M primer and three Lee primers, and I honestly feel that the Lee tools do just as well. The K&M is more compact (no tray - single feed by hand), so it goes to the range.
