yep, except its threaded on the end with no handle...
I will just chuck it up in a cordless drill if they get it right. I talked to a guy named Seth at Hornady this morning and he said it sounds out of spec. He is going to send me another and said if it's not in the mail today, it will be tomorrow and before he boxes it up to ship he said he would personally take it to the shop and have it checked for proper dimensions and function and he requested I send him mine back so they can anylize it for quality control. I'll report back when I get it.
As for the RCBS swage dies vs. Swager vs. Dillon, I haven't yet decided how serious Im gonna get on this .223 reloading yet. I have a lot of factory Winchester Razorback and Barnes VorteX ammo that I can use the brass for loading precision ammo with Hornady and Barnes bullets. But for general ISIS-headhunter/zombie or home defense I have a lot of M193 ball that is accurate enough for the purpose. If I decide I really want to make use of all that brass I will almost certainly just buy the Dillon tool and be done with it.
