To deprime I used a dowel with a nail in the center. To prime use another dowel and con cave the end so it fits around the primer pocket sticking up in the shell. You can stand the shell up a bit to deprime, and I just put a primer on my wood bench top, put the shell over it, and whack it with the dowel inside. Use the same dowel to prime to seat the wads. Sometimes you have to get a over size dowel and turn it down with a file. If you have or know someone with a metal lathe you're all set to make out of steel. Or if the shells are the right size a Mec jr would work just fine.
