Just used my buddies Dillon Precison 600 for the .223rem primer pockets.
Works pretty good.

My gewglefoo shows RCBS sells something similar.

What’d you ask Santa for?
 
I thought I had a swager kit from LEE, but I guess it was my imagination. Sooo, I guess Santa will be bringing me a set from ??
 
I have the RCBS kit - labelled "Primer Pocket Swager Kit - 2" - it contains stuff to do both 7.62 NATO and 5.56 NATO - I used the smaller set up a lot to prepare brass for our Grandson's .223 Rem - but is the only type I have ever used - so nothing to compare to, if it is really good or not. Some set-up involved, as I recall - it works within my re-loading press. I was doing batches of 50 cases at a time - reload them and send them off to Grandson - that slowed down quite a bit, once swaged brass started to come back, to get "re-filled".
 
Has anyone used the LEE swage in LR and then primed with Ginex? Does it actually make a difference? I am placing an order with Higginson's tomorrow.
 
For swaging individual brass I use a Frankford Arsenal Platinum case prep unit. You can trim, chamfer, ream/swage/uniform all on one unit. it's a bit more $$ than the Dillon but does so much more, faster.
 
I use the RCBC, but primarily got it to use with the Remple tool to tighten primer pockets. My son did use it a lot what with his blackgun fixation, back when that was still a thing.
