Shotgun Shell Primer Pocket Peener 

I think the primer pocket of European and Japanese brand shotshell is a little bit larger than the US one. So this kind of tool will be needed to use the US brand primer to them. I have a lot of Japanese hulls and Winchester primers. Thanks for nice information which exactly I needed.

Great vid!!!! Would love to see a good old blizzard don't get much snow here.

I bought one from midwayusa and I can load my Italian shells with standard 209 primers now.

another great video. Very informative. How many re loadings can you expect from a given shell?

Hey mannyCA as the other guy says how many times can we reload these hulls ... 3/8 ratchet extension and and sharp hit will swage the primer pocket to accept the 209 primers ... Thank you for the Video keepem Coming Thank you

Hey, comment on the RIO HULLS. RIO hulls aren’t softer, they’re primers are just oversized compared to all other primers on the market. Their primers are .245”. Compared to CCI .240” , Federal and Remington .241”, Winchester .2415”, Fiocchi and Cheddite .242”. So Rio is just a Bit oversized as you can see. I don’t know why they’re .245” , but they are. Hope that helps a bit.

The reason a Winchester, Federal or Cheddite primer falls in a Rio or Fiocchi hull is because Rio and Fiocchi primers are 1/1000 of an inch larger. Reloading those hulls with Rio primers reduces or eliminates the need for resizing in most cases. Good job on the video.

That is a great little tool. I discovered by accident that you can exert a little force on your de-primer and then flatten the base back out using a flat disc under your reprimer to do the same thing-if you are using a press. By hand, these tools work the best.

This is a method I have used for some time out of necessity on my 4 bore cases, which are very difficult to source, it keeps the cases going for a long time, many thanks for posting this, I make my own tools, did not know these were available.

Wow, I was amazed that someone finally can explain their video using proper flowing concise descriptions. I wish others could do the same. Good information.

Pretty obscure tool, looks useful though. "Wanna see my pocket peener?"

Rio hulls need Rio primers . The Rio primers are bigger than all others on purpose to get people to buy their primers!!!!

This blizzard really sucks,glad to see your still being productive ! Great video !

Looks like an easy tool to make. Ill have to make me one next time i get hulls that are loose. Ive tossed a few over tbe years

check out LANES LOADING....LANES RELOADING for reloading 410 to 10 gauge kits...copy of old Lee loading kit....They work....I have the 410 and 10 kits from him...

209 primers are supposed to be the same regardless of who makes them.......I don't find that completely true. It seems that European made 209's are a whisker bigger than those made here. They actually work fine in all applications - shot shells, black powder in lines, etc. - but if you are switching from European made to US made, you will find (At least I have) that the primer pockets are looser than before. Just enough to notice. I have run into this with pellet makers too - just a whisker looser fit with US made pellets compared to European made. Not enough to interfere with things, but enough for me to notice. I've always chalked this up to "not quite perfect" conversion from metric to English measurements. I've never had a need for a tool like this, but I've told myself more than once that I should put one in my tool box. This video has proven to me that I should do more than just tell myself to do something.....😐

Nice. I just ordered one from BPI $24.00 with shipping. MAGA !

I needed a tool to make primer pockets larger. Had some old Remington 10 gauge hulls with undersize pockets for 209 primers.......Had to ream out the plastic inside the pocket with a screw driver that fit. Did not have right size drill available. Don't recommend this method if you have many hulls to do......lol.

The Rio pockets aren't soft. They use their own (larger) proprietary primers. But, great job resizing them to fit regular 209 primers. I have a case of 16 gauge shells that I've not been shooting because I couldn't find any rio primers available. But, now that I know about this tool, I'm going to try it. Thank you very much for making the video.

I've come up on this a few times and merely peened once on each side with a center punch. This is much more elegant. I wonder if an arbor press might give a little more control over the process?

for new hull go to www.ballisticproducts.com/10-gauge-hulls/products/75/ www.ballisticproducts.com/16-gauge-hulls/products/77/

Where can i find a recipe for 16g Rio hulls?

The Rio hulls have the biggest primer pocket in the world. Cheddite and fiocchi are a bit bigger than the american ones but Rio primer are the biggest that's why the other primers fit loose. 👍

Cheddite 209 vs Winchester 209 shotshell primers I just got my first batch of Cheddite 209 primers and did a careful measurement of them and the Winchester 209 primers I used both the micrometers and digital calipers to measure the diameters of the body of the primers. Aside from what a lot of people have said whereby the Cheddites being oversized and thus enlarging the hull's primer pocket which then made the Winchester 209 primers fit to loose, but according to the cheddite 209 primers I received, there's hardly any difference in their diameters The cheddite primers measured no more than .001 (1 thousandth of an inch) in comparison to the diameter of the Winchester 209 primers I then tried several random cheddite primers in the hulls, deprimed them, and then primed the same hulls with Winchester 209 primers. There was nowhere near the looseness which some people have been reporting, and in fact there was certainly an adequate tightness of the Winchester 209 primers in the hull after the cheddite 209 primers had first been pressed in and then removed from those hulls I just now finished shooting 10 rounds of my reloaded .410 shells. My following recipe is only to reference the testing of the Winchester 209 primers having stayed seated in the hull's primer pocket: Winchester AA hulls, 17gn of LIL' Gun powder (loaded on the hotter side of the recommended loads) , generic claybuster wads, and (x3) 3/8" chromium ball bearings. I didnt have any problems with the W209 primers backing out and that is even with a recipe that is a hot load.

Their* damn RU-vid won’t let me edit, and I’m not retyping that entire comment. Lol

I wonder if instead of using a hammer, you could use a press. You know, one of the smaller ones that fit on a bench, or even chuck the tool in the chuck of a drill press. Interesting tool.

What Frank D. said is spot on. Reo hull you need reo primers.

Rio, Cheddite and Fiocchi primers are larger than american 209's

the rio primer pocket are loose because they're made for the slightly larger Euro primers

I once bought some new hulls and new russian primers that would fall out of the primer pocket even before being once fired. Had to use laquer to keep them in place. Now I use some Spanish made primers that hold well. Nice tool you have.

Blizzards are good days in the reloading room. Cool tool.

Thank you

Cool, looks like a worthy thing to spin up next time im out in my workshop.. It certainly looks more purposeful than the rusty old bolt and block of wood I have used in the past. Whew 10 gauge huh.. I bet that makes a mess of clay pigeons!

Pls tell me primer size sir

Awesome man, thanks for this video. Didn't even know that this product existed.

I've found that a small dab of superglue applied holds a loose primer in well.

s

BPI still sells them .

Nice

good video

Have you tried to peen the pocket down far enough to use winchester 57 primers?

Just added mine to my wish list on Midwayusa!!!!
