Primer pocket swager.

I have had one of those for over forty years. I got it back then to make .222's from GI .223 brass and .243's from 7.62x51 cases for my varmint rifles. Just looked at the RCBS swagers again and they appear to still be the exact same kit   Back then I found that while they do work, They didn't move enough metal to make a proper radius at the entrance to the PP. And a tiny ridge was left at the transition from the outside radius into the pocket. This made the swaged pocket pretty tough on new primers as they were seated. Lots of distortion.    Last winter, I had occasion to use the swager again. This time on a bunch of GI issue “06” brass. Same thing. So recently I bought a simple Horndy PP reamer and have gone back through the PP's on all that brass again. Much better transition and much easier seat of the new primers. No distortion.    Would I buy an RCBS swager again, No. I personally would look for a reamer. Keep in mind that the newer RCBS kits may be different. Don't know. Still wouldn't change my opinion though.   Also, I have found that there can be some variation occasionally in those military Primer pockets. This reamer took care of that. Not pushing the Hornady , however think that any quality PP reamer\uniformer will do the same.
