Adobe RGB and US Web Coated SWOP are both considered Working Space profiles. They are a way to work with and store your file without converting it to the actual printer profile. This keeps things flexible in a general sense.

The question really is, why would you do CMYK for one and RGB for the other? Why not just use Adobe RGB for everything and simplify your life? If your color management is working, you should get good results from both RGB and CMYK.

What struck me as odd was that you were using an unconventional CMYK Working Space that would really have no significant advantage and would move you away from the default settings shared by zillions of happy Adobe users who i assume are you customers.
