I am in the case preparation phase of approx .1200 rounds of American Eagle XM193. If I am not mistaken, this is already once fired brass before it is manufactured, Now, my brass has 2 firings. From what I can tell, the primers are crimped, so I bought an RCBS Super Swage. I ran about 10 rounds through the swager, and wanted to see if I was getting the job done right by priming a few cases that just went through the swager. Everything feels good and the primers seat nicely. My dad is helping me, and he thought, just for the hell of it, to try priming a few rounds that have NOT been through the swager. When seating these, they did not feel any differently than the ones that went through the swager, they seat exactly the same; flush and ready to go.
So, my question is, does American Eagle XM193 already have the crimp removed? I plainly see a crimp ring, but my Winchester primers went in identically between swaged cases and non-swaged cases.
Any thoughts?
