Swaging Perfection
I noticed when swaging 0.2175 slugs with .177 wire that there are small imperfections on the body of the slug. I suppose this is because of the folds the wire makes when it is compresed into the bigger space. How can one get rid of the imperfections as I think this will impact the accuracy and/or the precision of the slugs.
Sorry for the Picture quality it was taken through a magnifying glass.

Hello Henry,
Try swaging without lube if you are swaging with lube!
And if you are swaging with lube you can also switch to WD-40 without silicone and see if the results improve.
Secondly imperfections on the lead wire can also translate on the slug.
Impurities in lead will come on the surface once it's swaged.
