Good day my fellow reloading members. I praise the gracious act of @Mygrainman for letting me borrow his Dillon Super swage 600.
Over 5000 cases have been swaged with this most impressive tool and I pondered how much time I've saved verses using the Lyman Case Prep center with pocket cutters of the past.... I was bored one day and timed myself and in one minute I swaged 20-28 cases on average with a very methodical rhythm and
I figure it has saved me days in my estimation.
That being said, my next task is resizing this massive amount of brass. In the past I have resized hundreds of to 223/556 cases but I have never taken on a task of this size.
If anyone has any tips to help streamline this endeavor please speak up to save Ole Caveman from being stuck in his shop 24/7 for the next month doing this task.
Please keep in mind there are still fish in the lake that need to be caught LOL
