Default RE: depriming live primers

Yeah, you don't want to go shooting that corrosive stuff down your barrell.

Try taking your sizing die and run the primer pin all the way out. That way it will not try to size the case but the primer pin will still attempt to knock out the primer and go VERY slow. I've had to remove the occasional primer that flips over during the priming process and inadvertantly seated in the case. Kinda nerve racking but I've yet to have one go off. It's not the safest thing in the world so you want to be very carefull.

Or....

You could load up apowder charge andsome throw away bullets and fire them through your gun...you spend the primer and fire form your brass all in one step.

Be safe!
