If you are referring to those brass thingamabobs that measure a priming charge then NO. I usually use a small priming horn or prime with what I'm shooting at the time.
I used to use the other type nut some shoters stated they were unsafe. I found that they did not hold enough priming powder for a full day at the range, they got clogged from soupy pans (high humidity makes the pan soupy or muddy) or I use my main horn.

Prime directly from your horn - put your finger over the spout hole to restrict and direct the flow of powder.

Maybe a little scoop on your horn plug?
Something that would come out of the horn holding exactly the amount you want if you was to rotate it to 12 o'clock. To not retain a pan charge would be 6 o'clock.

This one will. It drops 3f just as well as 4F, will also do 2F with an occasional shake.

Ended up buying a Philadelphia bag flask. It's tiny and the spout only holds 12 grains. With such a small spout I should be able to trickle the powder into the pan better than I'm doing now out of my horn. I'll report back on how well it works for this application when I get it in the mail and use it.
I like to prime from horn. I just tap lightly and then puff or tap out any extra from the pan if I over fill.
