The Hornady Lock-N-Load AP Primer Pocket Swage Tool (308/7.62x51) is a progressive-press accessory that lets handloaders process crimped military brass at full progressive speeds without stopping to run cases through a separate bench tool. Designed exclusively for the Hornady Lock-N-Load AP progressive press, it mounts in the press and uses a dedicated shell plate with three die stations — feed, swage, and eject — to push the primer pocket crimp outwards rather than cutting it away. Because swaging reforms the metal instead of removing it, there are no brass shavings or swarf to clear up, and the pocket retains its original wall thickness. Swage depth is adjustable to accommodate different case brands and headstamps. This version is sized for .308 Win/7.62x51mm cases using the large primer pocket. For .223 Rem/5.56x45mm brass, see the separate small-primer version. If you are running a single-stage press, see the Hornady Single Stage Primer Pocket Swage Tool instead. Includes the shell plate and all three die stations required for press-mounted operation.
