    I've used one for several years now. I wouldn't go back to the old methods again. They are fast and easy to use. I've run several thousand cses thru mine with no problems. It is a "feel" operation but easy to learn.

    I second that! After you get the "feel" of it the Dillon super swager is fast and easy. If you shoot alot of military brass it's a great investment.[;)]

    WOO-HOO!

    got my crimp remover this weekend-i love it-reloaded about 150 rounds of 30-06 until i ran out of powder. i predict that the M1, 03A3 and AR are all gonna be making alot more noise more frequently!

    BLAM!

    Just got 1 before X-Mas...tried it...absolutely LOVE IT!!!
    Saves SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much twisting on a primer pocket reamer to get one ready for commercial primers it has sped my reloading up at least 100+ %. Took about an hour to get used to it...then it was "LOOK OUT WORLD"

    Dunno about the dillon, but I've got a similar product from RCBS and it is well and above the damned reamer I started out with. Instead of 'twist twist twist' it's just 'pull'- done.

    This RCBS die is dated 68. Just dug it back out to swage pockets of .223 military brass to form 7mm TCU. Alas, the .223 rod (inside pin) is missing!!![:(!] The large caliber rod is installed in the die, but cannot find the smaller 223 rod. The large and small primer pocket swager is here but the rod is missing. Guess I will have to call RCBS and see if I can get another one.
