I have used the Hornady 45 vibrating primer filler and the Vibrafill from Dillon but both were a disappointment.

I used the Double Alpha unit to load some large rifle primers and was delighted with how well this device works. I think the vibrating action is more powerful than either of the other two units which seemed to aid the filling action. I'd say this one is a home run and I highly recommend it.

So far I like it. It can be a little finicky when flipping primers due to pattern of the ridges, but overall it works well. Those last few primers are usually going to have to be flipped by hand, otherwise you end up flipping some in the wrong directions. As to filling the tubes, get the angle right and they flow right in without issue. So far I've used it with CCI, Federal and Fiocchi. CCI and Federal are a breeze, but because of the way they're packaged, Fiocchis are a little more of a pain, but once the tray is ready they fill the tubes just fine. It seems well built and overall I'm very happy with the purchase. I think it's a hard to beat time saver for the money.

I bought one and could not get ANT (Rem, Win, Fed, or CCI) to drop. Spent hours trying to get it to work. Sent it back at my expense and received a refund within two days. I hoped this would really work.

It works! I have purchased and tried several similar primer tube charging systems and so far this is the one that works the best. I use a lot of Fiocchi primers that appear to be ever so slightly larger than CCI or Federal, this causes an occasional slight hesitation. By touching the primer tube on my bench the device shakes a little more vigorously and down they go, in the correct orientation too. I also like not having to add a magnet to the end of the primer tube to function with this loader.

I would give 5 stars but for the fact the lid doesn't have any kind of latch. It's a bit cumbersome to ensure you keep the lid on. It's not extremely difficult, but the fact it's floppy and just resting there by pressure alone is a little disconcerting knowing you could spill a full sleeve of primers. I've noticed it goes through 9v batteries fairly quickly as well. Keep a good supply of batteries on hand if you are doing several thousand at a time. I'd strongly consider a rechargeable.

Tried mine today, large pistol primers had to be coaxed to go down the Blue DAA primer tubes. Still faster than picking the primers one at a time.
