Hey all,
I tried getting into swaging about a year ago....
Bought a cheap-o Ebay die.... and pretty well got what I paid for...
Goal was to re-swage cast and lubed lead pistol boolits.
It is a simple SWC die (Straight die, flat base w/ ram mounted nose punch)
Inside of the die is pretty rough, makes bullet ejection pretty tough.
Dimensionally -- runs as advertised.....
and I promptly split the nose punch soon after I started using it.
So......
Who do you folks recommend for good quality swage dies...
1. Good internal finish for proper ejection
2. Proper dimensions -- runs as specified
3. Durability... Dies and punches made and heat treated properly
4. Delivery time -- I really don't want to wait a year for a "standard" bullet die.
Thanks
John
