Overview
Built for reloaders who want to restore primer pockets on a wider range of cases, this swager combo is intended for use on standard single-stage presses. The redesigned setup includes two swager rods, large and small swager heads, a case stripper, and a die body with a locking ring and 7/8"-14 threads. RCBS also notes stronger high-tensile steel rods in the updated design, while the smallest rod is limited to .223 cases. It is not intended for progressive presses, so it fits best in a deliberate bench-loading workflow rather than high-volume setups.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Not intended for use on progressive presses, so it is limited to standard single-stage setups.
- The smallest swager rod is specified for .223 only, which may narrow its use on some case types.
- It is a primer pocket swager kit rather than a complete reloading press accessory system, so it serves a specific step in case prep.
- The included green storage case adds organization, but the product is still a dedicated bench tool with multiple parts to keep track of.
