Re: Dillon 650 / Swage It

I finished loading my lot of 4k 9mm that had been processed with Swage It and noted a huge improvement in positive primer insertion with approx 4 out of 1k failure to seat :tiphat:

Mr. Tom, I'm still not sure if it is worth the added prep time though... :confused5

Re: Dillon 650 / Swage It

After using the Swage It on about 4k psc of 9mm brass I'd say it does not necessarily swage the brass, particularly military type brass, but instead culls out the brasses suitability and resets the primer pockets for easier install. It definitely helps in the reloading processes as I'm not wasting as many primers (which was my goal) but I can't say if it is worth the extra time due to the added process.

I don't buy a product like my Dillon 650 directly because of the warranty no more than I buy Glocks but because I TRUST them to work. I have had no issues with my Dillon and the Swage It as I actually read the directions and don't force anything.. :tiphat:

I hope this helps :fire
