Lee Preciesion 90997 Lee Precision, Small & Large Safety Prime Primer Feeder, 2006 Later Reloading Press

Works well on my Challenger Press. I used to reload 45acp & .357mag

In the end I was very happy with it. I was an idiot and actually attached the Mount to my Challenger III press upside down! Anyways once I fixed that... It seemed to work good. Certainly a Learning Curve there. I found some great videos on YT. Once showed how to use those metal office clips, ( clamps with a wire thing on each side to allow you to open it ) You put that around the plastic feeder tube. Then remove both wires The clamp holds the 2 halves of the feeder tube together REALLY nicely. Makes it way easier to attach to the primer tray.... WITHOUT any " 3 Stooges" accidents It took me a bit to get the right feel of the Feed Button. When done perfect it make a slight Click. Use caution when you get down to the last few primers ! I learned to keep my left hand below the primer cup when I got tp the last primers. So I could catch it it fell out

I used the Lee primer feeder on my Lee turret press with small pistol primers. The unit works pretty well. A few times I had a primer enter the priming arm cup sideways, but that may have been because I didn't use a deliberate, positive actuation. The majority of the time it dispensed a primer correctly. When you get to the last few you may have to tap the unit to move the primer to the feed mechanism. Other than that and the fact it seems to be made of hinky plastic, it is an effective add-on for priming without having to individually handle them with finger tips.

Works perfect as designed

Great Price. products are a little fragile. Usually work well

Received this fast! It is a nice upgrade over the other two original Safety Prime versions (round tray old style primer dispenser and fold over tray old style dispenser) both of which I have. I guess we are all the subjects of field testing this product? The mounts seem better height to quit dropping primers and no longer require a shim or washer to raise the height when used with a turret press and the actual primer dispenser mechanism seems much better quality than the early version. The internal springs have been upgraded so they will not fail or set so quickly. I liked my originals and they took many thousand of rounds to fail, but they have flaws. I hate the new fold over primer trays ,they do not feed near as reliable as the older round ones and are prone to flip the primers so be careful although this version seems that they may have addressed it partly. Overall a quick priming system but not without it's flaws. Faster than most others out there to load and easy to use once you get the feel for it. Maybe third time is a charm with this product? Time will tell....

Please be aware when reading reviews for this product to check the date it was posted. Lee has changed this product 3 times, but has kept the same part number which leads to some confusion (but keeping the same part number means all their literature stays correct). The latest update began production in June 2017. The original Safety Prime had round black primer trays with a clear cover and a black primer chute and a black or white dispenser (depending on the primer size). They later updated it to a newer version (this would be the second version), which had white/clearish triangular primer trays and a white primer chute and a black or white dispenser. This version was pretty bad. I suspect a lot of reloaders are still using this version, which would explain some of the bad reviews (well earned bad reviews). However this part was again updated for June 2017 to the newest version with the same triangular white/clearish primer trays, but a new gray primer chute and dispenser. The new dispensers have either SM or LG molded into them to denote the primer size, along with some serrations on the dispenser itself. The primer chute is a lot more sturdy/rigid, and primers tend to stay in the correct orientation as well. Also, the mount for the priming system that you attach to your turret press or Auto Breech Lock Pro has been updated with an additional hook to capture the 'wings' on the chute. The dispenser feels like it has a stronger spring and the 'click' from the dispenser is much more positive. Be sure it's aligned properly, and you will be good to go. Hopefully this clears up some confusion, just be sure to check the review date.

The Lee Precision Safety Prime Primer Feeder does what it’s supposed to do, but it has some limitations depending on your preferences and setup. Fit: It fits the Lee press as designed and integrates without major issues once installed correctly. Upgrade: This feels like a minor upgrade rather than a game changer. It adds some convenience, but I think there are better priming options out there. Adjustability: There isn’t much adjustability, so you’re somewhat limited in how you can fine-tune it for your workflow. Durability: It seems like it will hold up over time as long as it’s handled with care. It’s not something you want to be rough with. Instructions: The instructions weren’t very helpful. I had to look up videos to fully understand how to install and use it properly. Appearance: It has a basic, functional look—nothing fancy, but it matches the utilitarian style of the press. One thing to keep in mind: if you have larger hands or tend to have some shake, this may not be the best option for inserting primers. It can be a bit finicky to use consistently. Overall, it works, but it’s not a standout upgrade. There are likely better alternatives depending on your needs and preferences.

Certainly has sped up my reloading. Great product!
