I used to do it too, till I had one go off.   Scared the kids to death and damaged my press.  Not worth it to me, ever.

I've yet to have one go off. But I'm sure one day it will...

 

Yep. Not worth the 3 cents for the primer and 5 cents for the brass (or free brass from range pickup).

 

As others have commented, I am more worried about disposing of a live primer in a case than I am about recovering the components.

 

Someone needs to invent a solution that inactivates lead styphenate or whatever they are using in primers nowadays.
