1911jerry Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I have a thousand or so 9mm with military crimps (Nato symbol). Do I need a special swaging arm, or can I use the 223 arm? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessdigs Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) Use the same swage rod but there is an adapter for the guide rod to do 9mm/38s. There is also one for. 40 and one for .45 The 9mm and .40 adapter go on the 223 guide rod, the .45 goes on the .308 guide rod. Of course you don't need the adapter to swage 9mm, but you don't NEED a Dillon press to load ammunition.

blue_dot_glock Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 i have a dillon super swager, but thinking about this: https://swageit.com/swage-it-s550-combo-swager-for-the-dillon-rl550/ instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard this Supposedly voids Dillon's warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried this years ago with the 650. While others may have had some success I didn’t. It wouldn’t swage anything enough, stresses the shell plate and voids the warranty. Super swage works really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
