This has been a good thread, sounds like we all should start planning something with hammer Parkers and black powder shells
Wayne, That is a gorgeous gun, accessories, case, shells. I like everything about that and need to work on something similar for both a 10 and a 12. I. You grab your case and go...have a great day in the field...reload at night for the next day. I'll send you a separate note to ask about it. What a great presentation...
Rick, I have had a primmer go off once, in a 44 special shell with the Lee Loader kit. I was more surprised than anything. I think the larger pistol primers are fairly easy to seat in the brass shells though they require more than finger pressure. The antique cappers are a nice way to go. I do have a shell holder for 12 gauge and that is really quick on just a single station press with a primer feed. Most of the time though I like using the vintage tools.
