swage it?

[paul73]

Hi,

what is the opinion on this contraption?
i do it by hand now and do not see it to be a big enough nuisance to warrant an additional $100 expense, so, mostly curious of how usable/useful this thing is.

I was looking at this, but ended up just buying a super swage off Dillon.

The cheapest/easiest method is still the DB14 bit.

I am a member of the DB14 crowd. Works very well, and is fast.

I do both.

Stuff I’m planning to load hot or for platforms that are real tough on brass, I use the Dillon so as to not remove any material from the case.

For plinking, the bit is easier, it just makes a bit of a mess when doing hundreds/thousands of cases. But it is by FAR the most cost effective option.

Once fired crimped brass.

10,000+ reloaded rounds of NATO casings and I never swage. Just a quick primer pocket chamfer from my Lyman case prep station, and done. A chamfer also helps guide the new primer in.
