Ok, I knew it would work from watching a few videos about it in advance of buying. What I didn't know is how much fun it would be filling primer tubes. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. Add 2 AA batteries (not included) and you're set. The tool has to be held at a slight angle to ai...m the primers toward the corner hole of the tray they drop through. I had to give the unit an occasional shake to keep the primers in a line if they bunch up on each other before droping down the tube. Filling primer the tube is no longer a chore with the Vibra Prime.
This seems to be a good idea but for me IT SIMPLY DID NOT WORK. I have read other reviews that said they enjoyed using this and I would like to know what they did to get it to actually work. This was a WASTE of money for me and I tried everything including polishing and opening the orifices but it... still was faster to load 100 primers using a pickup tube and I have literally loaded well over 200,000 primers into those in the past 35+ years. The thing is I would not recommend this even to someone I did not like.

Doesn't work. The unit will not vibrate at a constant speed which is necessary for proper operation. I called Frankford Arsenal and they are sending a warranty replacement to me. A friend of mine has one and has worked great for him for several years so I have confidence that when the new one arrives it will work as advertised. Very good customer support from Frankfort Arsenal !!

This is my second one. I use this to load on my progressive and the first one went for well over 10,000 rounds

This product receives four stars because at the price point it's fit and finish is a little bit rough. Nothing quite seems to line up in the 2 half like someone who was putting it together, was in a hurry. it did not slip right together as it said in the instructions it was a little bit fiddly, and takes some jiggling to get it to go together in the correct fashion. This little tray made of two plastic calves and glued together is by no means cheap I would have expected for the price point someone to have taken a little more time when they were putting it together. However, it does work as advertise so instead of a two star review, it gets a four star review.

Speeds up primer tube loading time in lieu of manual pickup tubes. Does require careful attention to primer orientation in tray and while vibrating into fill tube. A little disappointing that the apparatus requires a secondary transfer into the reloader pickup tube to load the primer tube.

Great product does what it says it does. Fast easy loading of my primer tubs. Dont have to load 1 primer at a time. From flipper.

Better than spending 400.00 works great
By JOSEPH
works well but a few primers get caught up in the hole. a little fidgeting and they fall.
By TOM
Works ok, does jam a lot but if you baby it, it does ok. Anything is better and quicker than one at a time!
