The swaging tool I have has two dies, to take it down in two steps rather than one. The Shell holder fits into the ram of the RCBS Rock Chucker, and the die threads into the top. On top of the die is the punchout handle.
The setup I have , the ram pushes the hull up into the die , then there’s another ram inside the die that you push it back out . I seriously doubt I ever swagge more then 500-1000 hulls but it’s nice to know I have the ability should the need arise
