Can you guy's give me a name of a good book to explain the basics of bullet swaging? I think I would like to give it a try but would like to do some reading on it before spending $

Call up Dave Corbin's website at <www.corbins.com>; he has a number of books available in hard copy as well as a current 9th Edition "Handbook of Bullet Swaging" you can download from the site (for free), or buy on CD. Also, keep an eye out for his out-of-print "Rediscover Swaging"; they turn up from time to time. His writing style is good, clear and almost a substitute for a face-to-face session.

Did you notice,we have a swaging site here on "CastBoolits"? If not, check it out. [EDIT: OF COURSE he knows, dum-dum; we're ON it!]

And yes, you can spend serious $$$$ on good swaging equipment; but several of us have lucked out on used stuff and swapped it back and forth.
