I read where at one time that many years ago Lyman was going to offer a swaging press named the Match-O-Matic swage press. Anyone know anything about these?

CH (of CH4D fame) made one called a SWage-O-Matic. I have one of those. short aluminum frame, specifically made for making "half jacket" bullets, and not at all for the type of swaging we are mostly doing these days.

I would guess that the Match-O-Matic would have been a way around the protected name, but would have been similar.

I see no mention of a Match-O-Matic here:

I've seen your post here for a few days with hardly any response and I've kinda felt bad. Funny thing. B sing at the shop a guy mention that he had a Lyman swaging press. Old as heck, and built like a brick house. Anyhow, he's going to dig through his stuff and see if he can't find it. May take it a couple weeks to come up, but if he has till has it, I'll see about a pic or two. I'll let you know. May not be a myth after all.....
