What is everyone using on crimped primers pockets???

[garypl50]

I use the Dillon tool - costs @$100, works great.

The DILLON SWAGER TOOL, is north of that figure now, but one of the best we have ever used and a very good tool to add to your reloading tools to have and own...

I seldom remember how much I paid for tools that work well and last a long time.

The bad reviews are somewhat concerning for the Dillon.

Does anyone have any experience with the RCBS swager that looks similar to the Dillon?

I have an RCBS Swage die set but lately have been doing high volume of 223, wasn't fast enough so I switched to Frankford platinum series series using Lyman primer pocket reaming bits. Fast and it works great.

I use the Dillon tool. Great tool always works as it should.

I have the Dillon and it works great. I bought the Swage It for my 650, but have yet to use it. Mounts to the press.

I have the RCBS unit. I got a deal on it but should have maybe bought the dillon. I've used it on small and large primer crimps and in both cases it takes a LOT of effort, and marginal results (using the gauges I mentioned above).

for best results currently I hit it for a few seconds with the RCBS military crimp remover tool that's in my FA case prep and then use the RCBS swager. Very good results but time consuming.

I use the RCBS press mount kit. Has always worked well for me. Use it on a LEE single stage press. Had to get a short piece of copper pipe and cut it to make it work on the LEE, seems like there are instructions on youtube on how to make it work.
