I just got the instructions to my CH Swag-o-Matic press (thanks Pressman) and it appears I have everything to swage half-jacketed bullets (including a few dozen of the jackets) except for the lead wire.
My question is is there anything conceptually wrong with using a normal cast boolit of as pure lead lead as I can get? I was thinking a nose down SWC would fit best.
I've never swaged anything before and have a very limited understanding of it.
