Can a Dillon Super Swager 600 tighten 300 WSM primer pockets

I understand that the Dillon Swager 600 was original produced to deal with crimped primer pockets but I am wondering if it could also be used to cure sloppy primer pockets - any one with first hand experience?
 
Seems like the best solution would be to have some oversized primers specifically for loose pockets. They make oversized main bearings and rod bearings to accommodate wear!
 
Yellow11, Mechanically it will not tighten pockets. If you use almost any primer , but Wolf, until the pocket begins to loosen, then use Wolf , you will get some more use out of the case. Wolf is a little bigger, than say, CCI or Federal.
 
I use nothing but Wolf primers and when they will not stay in or are very loose, I would say that the brass is trash by that time.

Klong, many thanks for your input - sadly, to my knowledge, they are not available in the UK

Wolf is just a brand name, and as far as I know are only marketed here in the US, but the same primers are also sold under other brands, e.g. PMC and Tula. They all come from the same plant in Russia (Tula). Perhaps someone in the UK is importing them under a different brand, maybe even private-labeled?
