OK, now that I am done breaking equipment, I hope, here are some picks of the first batch of swaged bullets.
They may not be the purtiest girl on the block but they are a cheap date.

It is the Swage-it Die from Hawks precission bullets. It's a one die set with mulitple nose forming punches that are place in the shell holder slot. Took less then two weeks from order to delivery.

Those are mighty fine looking home growns! Dies seems to be working really nice! Hawked has a very nice reputation. He swages bullets for Alexander Arms Beowulf...

Before I ordered the die set I called him up. I talked with him for about an hour. When I order the dies he threw in a handfull of jackets and the zinc washers he uses as gas checks. The zink is suppose to coat the barrel and help prevent leading from the way he explained it. Worked real well in my Ruger SBH.
