Abstract
Ammunition case priming tool, associated components, and methods of use. The priming tool can be adjustable to adjust a primer seating depth in the ammunition case. An actuation mechanism includes an actuator and a primer driver drivable by the actuator for seating the primer in the case. A stop engages the primer driver to limit travel of a priming head in a priming direction to determine seating depth of the primer. The priming tool can be configured for the priming head to return to a consistent home position.
