Military crimp remover punch
Quote from Reloader on September 8, 2017, 7:16 pmAny chance that in the future Dillon will make a punch that can be used to remove military crips when using the xl650 to decap shell casings ?
I would buy a set in a heart beat

Dillon should ramp up their engineering effort on this; it's not rocket surgery to retrofit the 650 to swage. 🙂

Quote from Reloader on October 3, 2017, 8:50 pmWhile I've got somewhere in the neighborhood of 850 military rounds (HXP) of .30-06, most of it is still unfired and in the spam cans. The rounds I've fired have all gone through the Super Swager. I guess if you figure in the time you'll take doing each individual primer pocket by hand on the Super Swager, as opposed to changing out the primer punch, etc., and setting up the Swage-It!, and then cycling through the press twice, plus the additional $30 you spend for the Swage It! over the Super Swager, if you feel that voiding your warranty is worth it. I, for one, do not. I like to see what that swager is doing when I work the brass. I only have to do it one time for each case and don't have to do it again. Never had a problem. My 2 cents.
