My question is with the lee 4 die set on the turret press do you deprime when you resize? I already have a rcbs hand primer and I would probably use it to prime but I Am a little confused on how I would deprime
I deprime with the Lee Universal decapping/depriming die (just screw it on an any caliber setup I already have on the press) as the first step in cleaning fired brass. The replacement pin is cheap just in case something is amiss and I break a pin (haven't broken one yet). Since I deprime prior to hand or tumble clean, I don't want to chance getting "grime" in my sizer die.

As for the safety prime that comes with the classic turret press kit, it's a great way to seat a primer quickly and consistently. Haven't touched a hand prime unit since. It takes a little bit of time to get comfortable with it, but once you do, your hand primer will be a paper weight.
