The reamer takes metal from the primer pocket, the swage moves the metal and nothing is lost from the case. Both work but with the swage there's no brass cutting you have to clean up after the session.

The swage will make a nice rounded edge on the pocket and the reamer cuts a straight pocket and sometimes you have to chamfer the edge slightly.
