Dillon Swager

[Foxhound]

Thinking about getting one and I was wondering if you ran a case thru more than once withour ruining it? Sometimes after a shoot I will have a bag of my reloads and some factory cases.

if you have it set up correctly for the case you are shooting shouldn't be a problem as it won't hit anything as there is no crimp.

Won't matter. Once the crimp is gone on the brass, the swager will just index the primer pocket, there will be no resistance (no primer crimp left) so it will just slide in the pocket with very little force and not hurt the case.

The Dillon Swager is a great piece of equipment. I love military brass and it makes short work of the crimp. Have done about 35K rounds on mine and no issues of any sort. Works like a charm.

Have one.

Love it.

Won't hurt to run a case through it twice.

Great way to spend an evening in front of the tube.

I just borrowed one for 1k of 223. Great piece of kit.

I do remove the swager and backing rod on my 1050 when I'm running processed brass, but it's just to simplify the process.

I tend to process by the 5 gallon pail, and often will pre-prime so the swager has to be removed afterword.
