I busted the ball on my handle because I have to beat the thing with a dead blow hammer to get the cases off the swager. I'm new to loading 5.56 so never had to use a swager. It's setup per directions and I've watched youtube videos to confirm I'm setup right. My questions are, is this normal? Can someone measure the small swager so that I can confirm mine isn't oversized.

Any tips are appreciated. If I can't figure this out I'll have to go in a different direction as beating on my press is just stupid.
