primer pocket swage

[matt86]

Which primer swage do y'all use? I'm looking at the Dillon swager, just wanted to know if a cheaper model worked just as well.

I bought the CH4D Primer Pocket Crimp Swager Tool and found it works great, for a VG price $32 Plus S/H

I'm not a big fan of this type of swager. I prefer the RCBS or Dillon (which I use) as they support the case on the inside instead of the rim during the swaging. I have ripped the rim off of cases using this method.

I picked an RCBS single stage swager die (small/large pockets) type back in the late 1980's and never looked for another since this one works fine. Today it is only $34.99 at Midway.

You need a non-progressive press to use it.

It really makes life so much easier. My 8 year old uses it for her 5.56 brass.
