1028Tech Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Does anyone have any experience or opinions using the Swage it S650 Version 2 for small primers on their Dillon XL650 press. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHI Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 IT is real good at warping the shellplate. Voiding the life time warranty. Other than that it does a poor job at swaggering the primer pockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Yes. The 550, 650 and 750 presses will not adequately swage brass with this. In fact it voids the press warranty and is hard on the shell plate. There are other devices, cheap and pricey which will do a far better job. The lowest price one which works very well is from RCBS and designed for a SS press. https://www.rcbs.com/case-processing/accessories/primer-pocket-swager-combo-2/16-9481.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1028Tech Posted November 9, 2021 Author Share Posted November 9, 2021 Thank you all! I had talked to another friend this morning and he had pretty much said the same thing. Now I just need to see if I can return it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC082581 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I would think you are better off getting one of those Lee APP and swage on that. Swaging on the 650 is too much stress on the press and shell plates. It's not worth it in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKJD Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 I use one and it works fine. I must be doing something wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
