Got it. I'll let you know how it goes. Should be working on them in the next week or so.

Also that mighty armory decapping die is awesome. Thanks for the tip on it.

Yeah man, that MA decapper is the bees knees. Did you get the swage combo to swage military crimps too? I got my when they first came out with the solid pin, not the replaceable tipped ones. I have punched through berdan primers with no issue lol. They are tough for sure! I'm assuming you ran into some of the tiny hole R-P and Speer brass?

No. I wasn't aware the 357 Sig has military crimp. I decapped a bunch and didn't see any. What company has military crimp? I've done Speer, R-P, Winchester and I believe GSM. Could be wrong on the last one lol.

No the .357 SIG doesn't have crimps. I meant the 5.56 brass and what not.

Gotcha. Yeah I have a Dillon super swedge 600 for that.

MA has a swage combo with their decapper so you can swage 5.56/7.62 NATO and other military type crimped brass. I got it with mine. Really useful and effective.

ha yeah you are good then. I would get super swage but don't shoot much military brass in my rifles, mostly just Lapua.
