Hornady is continuing to bring out neat new stuff....and doing it way more often than their competition.......did Richard Lee buy out Hornady?

Greg,
Thanks for sharing this. I think this is awesome. A progressive tool to do this I think is just awesome. This tool with so many people buying an AR platform rifle and getting mil. surplus brass will find this very helpful to do a lot of brass that has crimped primer pockets. I'm sure this will flow over to the other makes and they will offer their own.

Big fan of the 7mm-08 Rem.

Well maybe I'll just buy this swage tool and go use it on one of my best bud's L-N-L!!!

Cheaper to buy an RCBS or Dillon bench swager and you get to stay home.

I won't be buying a LNL AP just for that.......unless I ever see a "need" to double my bench length and add another progressive....why? The laziness disease may hit me when I retire....and changing calibers is always the less fun part of reloading, even though I get to use the fastest caliber changing press there is.

Link below is pictures of my swager along with the above vid. I probably should add a review thread to the "review" section of Kwada's reference? While it is slower than Hornady's new tool, that's partly because I'm prepping pockets too.....and I like doing 2 or 3 or 4 things in one batch.....beginning laziness disease?

That is absolutely awesome. Fortunately I have a lnl press, and my birthday is coming up. Happy birthday to me :-)

While I like the Dillon swager, I really dislike the amount of time I spend on .223 plinking ammo prep work. My impatience gets the best of me, which is where the lnl really shines. This is the icing on the cake!
