I can't afford a swaging set up and don't know anyone local who does so I am +1 on selling to a local scrap yard either to buy lead or whatever else I may need at the time. Right now I have about 20 pounds so I'm going to wait.

What I do with the short 9mm luger cases .I trim them down some and use them in my 9mm wheel gun with a moon clip as 9mm shorts. It works for me. I trim them that way when I tumble them with the other brass they are easy to pick out of the brass.
