I’ve not tried the hydraulic method. I have used a removal tool that pries out the spent primer. A lot of work and not really worth the hassle if you have Boxer cases and primers.

I’ve not tried the hydraulic method. I have used a removal tool that pries out the spent primer. A lot of work and not really worth the hassle if you have Boxer cases and primers.
Note, there are three sizes of Berdan Large Rifle primers,.217, .250 and .254; so you need to be sure you get cases that match the diameter of your primers. The other issue is getting the right size primer punch for seating the primer.
I have a fair bit of spent .303 Berdan cases. PM me.
