Cleaning primer pockets
 

I usually use a drill to clean out my primer pockets instead of by hand with the RCBS tool. I notice after about three reloads, all my primers are a little sunk down in the case. I think I might hold off on the drill. Does anyone see this or could it be my bases are stretching?

I use one of the little wire brushes in a drill for cleaning pockets and never noticed any problems. Are yall talking about one of the cutting type pocket uniformers or a brush?

I do it too with a brush.I could see it happening with the cutter type also.

It's just the regular RCBS primer pocket cleaner with the wire brisals. I just usually take out the wire part and insert in a drill, but won't anymore.

I use the RCBS Trim Mate Prep Center, and it works very well on all case prep. A person has a great deal of control with this tool. Good luck.
