The RCBS 9580 Auto Primer Feed Combo automates one of reloading's most tedious and repetitive steps—hand-priming each cartridge. Built for RCBS Rock Chucker, JR, and Special presses, this automatic primer feed system drops primers into the plug and sleeve one at a time, eliminating the finger work that slows you down at the bench. If you're loading volume and tired of the monotony of manual priming, this combo speeds up the process measurably while reducing a real pain point: keeping primers clean and uncontaminated.
Hand-priming introduces another variable into consistency—oil from your fingers can foul primers and compromise ignition reliability. The automatic feed handles primers with nylon components designed to move them safely without jamming or dropping them mid-cycle. With a 100-primer capacity hopper, you can load a serious batch before refilling, keeping momentum at the press.
The combo includes both small and large primer tubes, so whether you're loading pistol or rifle, you've got the right setup. This is a straightforward, mechanically simple addition to your press—no batteries, no complexity, just a lever-operated system that works when a lot of your bench time is spent on the fundamentals. If your current reloading routine has you hand-priming one at a time, the time savings alone justify the upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which RCBS presses does this auto primer feed work with?
The RCBS 9580 is designed for RCBS Rock Chucker, JR, and Special presses. Verify your press model before ordering to ensure compatibility.
What's included in the combo kit?
The combo includes the automatic primer feed unit itself, plus both a small primer tube and a large primer tube, so you can feed either small or large primers depending on your load.
How often do I need to refill the hopper?
The hopper holds 100 primers at a time, so the refill frequency depends on your batch sizes. Most reloaders find 100 primers covers a solid loading session before needing to top up.
Does automatic priming really reduce contamination?
Yes—the automatic feed eliminates the need to handle primers by hand, which removes a major source of contamination from oils on your fingers. The nylon pickup also handles primers gently without exposing them to unnecessary contact.
