I sprung for the Harvey Deprimer tool. Just received it and it is made like a tank and works as advertise. Works easily on my .45s and my .284 rifle brass as well.

Re: Harvey Deprimer Any Good?
so is it easy to press a primer out or does it take a lot of hand pressure?

Holy Cow Chip: buy the Lee Universal Decapping and depriming die from Midway; for $12.99 instead
of this Harvey tool priced at $50 . The Lee die is mounted on your press, which I assure you, takes
FAR less effort to deprime than the Harvey tool. I've had and used my Lee die for at least three years,
and the primers and residue drop down the clearance plastic tube in my Lee press. Military crimped
primers are child's play when depriming on a press. The depriming process is not one that needs
a delicate or sensitive feed back such as using a hand priming tool.

Oops, I see I'm too late with the advice...

The portability is a plus, carry it and a bag of brass while waiting in the car for the wife to shop !

Also watching a football game from my LazyBoy while depriming is nice:-)

Re: Harvey Deprimer Any Good?
I really don't want to get all that residue from lead stypnate primers on my hands, and I sure don't want it in my car or my den.
I can understand and cannot argue against the handiness of it, but I don't think it will suit my needs at this moment.
If I want to deprime in the den, I can easily carry my portable reloading stand/RCBS Partner Press to the den.
