Dillon.
Just like others have said, I've tried a demurring tool, chamfer tool, RCBS swage die, and now I use a Dillon. I should of gotten the Dillon a long time ago.
I use the Dillion 600

Grafs has the Dillon 600 in stock so I might as well get it and be done with it.
One thing about it, the Dillon is a one time purchase.

I did about a thousand 223 several years ago with an old lyman hand reamer, was not fun. One day I'll get a dillon when money gets better.
Just ordered a Dillon 600 from Grafs and can't wait to try it out on a barrel of brass, I'll let ya know how it works out for me.
Another vote for Dillon's Super Swage.
I started with a pocket knife, worked up to deburring tool in a drill, got RCBS press swage setup, then moved up to the Dillon swage - If I wind the lottery I'll get the Dillon 1050
Dillon swager. No guess work about if you cut too much or too little. You can do 500 pcs so fast you will be looking for more. Many decades I used drill motors, drill presses, counter sinks, reamers etc, etc. Nothing does it so well so quickly. The devise is way over engineered durability wise, and is a pleasure to use. No hand cramps, no fumbling. (Stepping off the soap box now).
Its not the AR-15, its the PG -13.
The RCBS swager is great, but its too slow for me, and I like a radius-ed pocket to ease primer seating. I've gone back to just using the deburring tool, as even after swaging, I used it to once again ease primer seating. You only have to perform this once on a case, so why not get it over with!
Dillon is the way i went and wont go back to any other.
Started with the rcbs then tried a buddy's dillon.
Get a Dillon.
RCBS press swaging setup for now. I'll get a Dillon Super Swage as soon as I can find one! No one has them in stock right now.
