A primer pocket swager is very helpful!

I have found that many non-military loads also have some primer crimping. I'm sure they are all loaded on the same machinery. Swaging the primer pockets will make it possible to get new primers to seat properly. If they don't get swaged or reamed, you will have lots of trouble.
Rifle reloading is where the equipment starts to save big bucks. You got started exactly the way I did. Learned your way around 9mm and 45ACP and then moved on to rifle stuff. The sace prep for rifles is more extensive-but it can be fun. I use this case trimmer-and it RULES!

I bought mine without the mount or a case holder on ebay for $28. Does an awesome job!
