Cut vs swage

[The Shooters Apprentice]

Im processing a large batch of 223 range brass preparing to load up a bunch of 223 plinking ammo. Think several thousand rounds worth

I've always cut the crimps out, but i'm wondering if with this large of a batch if I would be better off swaging them out.

Thoughts?

I've always swaged, as I don't like the idea of removing material from the primer pocket.

I've found cutting to be easier than swaging, at least for large quantities. Given the availability of .223 brass, and since it's plinking ammo, I'd go with whatever method you find easiest.
I used to uniform my pockets when I was looking for extreme accuracy along with deburring the flash holes and neck turning but that's a whole different thing.
If I was working with hard to find brass I'd probably swage them.

I always swage with a swaging die on a single stage press I have for those types of chores.
