Which small pistol primers work best with your Vibra Prime? I just finally loaded all of my Winchester primers and they were a pain in the ass with the Vibra Prime and that’s a known issue with these primers. Never again.

CCI work great for me. I’ve also loaded plenty of Winchester with the Vibraprime. Are you using the tube that came with it? Vibrating at an angle?

CCI or Sellier and Bellot both work well. CCI run perfectly.

Yup and tried two different trays, Winchester just sucks with mine. CCI worked well, but I want to know if there are others that do.

Throw that Frankford tube in the trash. Use your Dillon primer tube and just hold it by hand.

I learned this trick 10+ years ago! Do it!!! I use Fiocchi now even though they come packed in 150s and definitely the biggest PITA.

The rounds on my bench with upside-down primers waiting for their turn in the bullet puller disagree with that statement. Is that why people are recommending just holding a Dillon (or in my case, Hornady) tube in there manually? I'm about ready to go back to getting hand cramps by loading tubes the "old-fashioned" way...

Been using my VibraPrime with Winchester primers since I bought it...probably reloaded 4-5k with it. Haven't had any issues to speak of. Definitely just hold the dillon primer tubes up to it. For $40 or so, I love the thing and wish I had gotten one earlier.
