...it can not abrade me or leave me bleeding in normal uses.
How well you use a tool will be affected by pain or irritation received in its use.
I will drag a file, sanding material or a F-ing hatchet to an offending ballistic tool to mitigate this!
I have done horrible things to (otherwise) very nice guns in service of this idea.

In my 9mm Super GP100 I get like 75% ignition on the first strike on S&B primers, and then they crack on the second hit, so I only use those for practice.
Ive often wondered what S&B primers are like.
I bought several hundred rounds of their .38 wadcutters on sale. When reloading, I found found the primer pockets to be brutally tight running Winchester, Remington, or CCI SPPs.
