    Check with Corbin. They make equipment. If, you don't have any luck, I have some limited info, that might help. Also, some stuff. GW gwvr@bresnan.net

    I remember a websight like www.swageyourown.com or some such, also www.ch4d.com has some supplies, if not too much info.

    I have the CORBIN equipment that turns a fired .22LR case into a .223 bullet. I have the cast coer set up, wish I had the wire instead. The quality of CORBIN products is great and the folks there really know what they are doing.

    Check out rceco.com. This is Richard Corbin's site. He is the brother to the Corbin that is usually thought of when bullet swaging is mentioned. He was the "hands on" guy at Corbins before he went out on his own. Slow, but the dies I have received from him are almost perfect and a little less costly.

    Google "swaging bullets" and a lot of information will come up. Also, many companies made swaging dies, core moulds, lead wire extruders, jacket-makers, etc. in the past. Check out the auction sites. Most of this equipment was designed around half-jacket bullets. New stuff is still being made, however. See CH4D as mentioned above. Someone on the castboolit forum is making dies that will make 10 mm/.40 bullets from 9 mm brass, and also .45 ACP bullets from .40 S&W cases.

    I remember a websight like www.swageyourown.comSorry, the page you were looking for cannot be found or some such, also www.ch4d.com quote:C&H was one of the early firms turning out top quality loading dies and H-presses for handloaders some fifty years ago. (The Swage-o-Matic was a beauty.) With the death of founder, Charles Heckman, in an automobile accident, the firm disappeared for awhile. However, like the phoenix, the firm returned. Now in Ohio, C&H has the ability to provide die sets for some 1,420 different cartridges, including at least one 12-caliber, ten 14-caliber and right on up to the 50 BMG - and larger. There are also dies for forming belts on your favorite wildcat, if needed.
