ProGunGuy Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I've been encountering a lot of crimped brass in 9mm in the ones i pickup. RG/WCC etc. it plays havoc with my LM. I am also too lazy to sort my brass. I shoot about 12-15k rounds of 9mm a year. I am thinking of getting a 1050 in 9mm to solve the crimped primer problem. Does it make sense?

HI5-O Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 makes sense to me. what about getting the Dillon swager and swage all your brass at once? just gotta do it once and it's cheaper than buying a whole 1050 setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle O Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 It would definitely save you some time, it just depends on how much your time is worth. 10-15K per year, and don't want to sort, I wouldn't even have to ask. If you absolutely hate the 1050, then just sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalaur Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 If you are *ever* asking yourself 'Do I really need a 1050?' the answer is always 'YES'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retread1911 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 If you want one then buy it. As soon as you load anything on it you will start desiring to load everything on it. The 1050 is an awesome machine. If you just need some brass processed then there are folks out there that will do it for a reasonable price or the super swage is a low cost alternative if you want to do it yourself.

randy01 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Thats the reason I bought one last year. Haven't regretted the purchase since. I still think a 650 isn't all that worse I just like the swagger. So it's 9x19 and 223 on the 1050 and for all the rest I still use my 650's If you can afford I wouldn't hesitate. And besides need one of each don't you Verstuurd van mijn HTC Desire S met Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProGunGuy Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 thanks. i really hate the crimped 9mm. i will load 40 on the LM as it works 100%. i am in the process of preparing to move. As soon as i settle down a 1050 will be my first purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcracco Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Crimped brass is fine, you just have to acknowledge that it is crimped and adjust your process for it. Rather than being surprised by crimps in mixed brass I but 100% crimped or non-crimped and keep my lots separate. Couple extra steps first time through but I find it is well worth it in the end. And buy a 1050. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benos Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 1050 (partial) justification points: 1. If you ever load brass with crimped primer pockets. 1a. The fact that the 1050 seats the primer on the downstroke is a beautiful thing. be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
