The RCBS 90383 Carbide Primer Pocket Uniformer delivers consistent primer seating depth for large pistol cartridges. This precision reloading tool eliminates primer pocket variations that affect ignition reliability and accuracy.
What Makes This Different
Carbide construction provides superior durability compared to standard high-speed steel uniformers. The tool maintains sharp cutting edges through thousands of uses without requiring frequent sharpening. RCBS engineering ensures precise .210-inch diameter cutting for standard large pistol primer pockets, creating uniform depth across all brass cases.
Key Features
- Carbide cutting head resists wear and maintains sharp edges
- .210-inch diameter designed for large pistol primer pockets
- Compatible with standard reloading press or hand-held operation
- Precision-ground cutting surfaces ensure consistent depth
- Works with .45 ACP, .40 S&W, 10mm, and other large pistol cartridges
- Standard 7/8-14 threading fits most reloading presses
- Hardened steel shank with knurled grip area
Consistent primer pocket depth directly impacts ignition timing and pressure development. Competition shooters rely on uniformed primer pockets to reduce velocity standard deviation and improve group sizes. The carbide construction handles military brass with crimped primer pockets, removing crimp material without excessive cutting force. Law enforcement agencies specify uniformed primer pockets for duty ammunition to ensure reliable ignition under adverse conditions.
