I couldn’t get the Lyman to trim consistently As in consistent measurements So I ended up just getting the Dillon rt1500 My crimp and M die do the debur and chamfer on the cases It’s pricey but it keeps me sane

What do you recommend for outside debur?

I gotta say the K&M while nice is kind of a pain in the @$$ Maybe I’m just not very coordinated but getting the guide rod through the flash hole is kind of a pain and takes me a few tries (yes I keep missing the hole……) Stop laughing Please stop It’s not funny

lyman bit in a cordless drill spun in reverse is 100 times faster and way better than that chamfer

I now use the Wilson trimmer with the K&M chamfer tool featured in this video They are both awesome tools!

Just got this setupwas worried with accuracy but 50 cases its held 0015" and I'm very happy with it Thank you John you probably don't realize how much you've helped others and how much people look up to you and your honest reviews!

Hello John, have you any experience with the Henderson gen 3 trimmer? I have been giving it serious consideration
Comment from : @ZZ-uf4zv

The Triway and a cheap Harbor Freight polishing wheel can get you cooking for <$200 You’ll need a grinder that does <3500 RPMs

I use the Little Crow in my drill press

Would you do a video on a comparison of ADG, LAPUA, PETERSON brass, why you like a certain one etc ? Thanks!

Thanks for all the great info 👍
Comment from : @patruddiman4228

How would you compare the giraud trimmer to the henderson trimmer? They measure in two different ways for trimming, one from shoulder and other OAL
Comment from : @briancobb978

The Lyman is also good if you are reloading for a number of calibers and, IMO, it handles chips better than some of the other trimmers that have more bearing surfaces that trap chips

I've been pretty happy with my FA case prep center It's not the best but it does job and way faster than doing them by hand
Comment from : @bigal4334

its a nice tool but boy, it can put a hurt on your fingers!
Comment from : @tommydee1437

What was the name of the Expensive one you usewas it a Girouex ?brGreat information and video againbrI really appreciate your videos John Thank you

To add to the list of trimmers: before owning a Giraud, I found the Little Crow Gunworks' trimmer to provide pretty good results in accuracy and consistency of the trimmed brass I had the Lyman a few years back but it did not work for me I could not get enough tolerance in trimming cases I kept the Lyman motor and fitted it to the Little Crow head I got the caliber specific Little Crow and they are solidly built with tight tolerances

I really love my RCBS Trim Pro 2 with 3 way cutterstrims, chamfers and deburrs in one easy step!brHook it up to a cordless drill and your rocking!
Comment from : @papasplace2

I agree this trimmer is a GREAT option on a lower budget I run it next to the Frankford Prep Center (4 station w/out trimmer) to chamfer/debur/neck brush after Pretty quick and under half the cost of a Giraud for both units Great recommendation!
Comment from : @ericbennett1253

I've bought the K&M deburring tool 2 years ago, but I still can't say if it was worth it Now I'm going back to the Wilson deburring tool (same as the RCBS) and I still make tiny groups For me external deburring helps the bushing to self align with the neck (improve concentricity), and the internal deburring is to improve the bullet seating I always deburr just before one of these operation, because the transport of the brass cases, the cleaning, trimming & resizing process can make some dents on the case mouth I stop chamfering as soon as I feel it running smoothly (no more burrs or dents left), noo need to sharpen the neck as a cookie cutter 😃
Comment from : @br4713

Looking to get away from my frankford, it's beginner level at best I'm actually considering this because of how many different calibers I load for Thanks again John
Comment from : @emoryzakin2576

Good video and information thanks for sharing
Comment from : @Dwayne7834

Thanks for doing a review of something cheaper Of course I'm still waiting on the extended zero review with some data 😉
Comment from : @jayvanleeuwen7713

If you already own a power drill, the Lyman power adapter for their traditional trimming tool is a good system Another option would be the Frankford Arsenal trimmer that adapts on your power drill (not to be confused with their Case Prep Station)brbrI own both and had good results with them I would be interested in your opinion comparing trimmers that index from the base of the case (most of them) vs trimmers that index from the shoulder (Giraud, Frankford Arsenal)brbrEdit: for chanfer and debur, I still use manual tools for small batches, or the Lyman case prep station for large batches (I advice using gloves as holding the cases against the rotational force of the unit will be abrasive to your skin after a couple of hundreds cases and you’ll get swollen fingers the next day)
Comment from : @VincitOmniaVeritas7

Was wondering if the Giraud tri-way head would attach to the Lyman Express, best of both worlds
Comment from : @6handicap604

If you want to talk about cost effective and precise, you can't beat a Lee case trimmer with a drill Chock it up, trim, chamfer, debur, run a brush through the neck and you're done I just wish they made versions to work with small rifle primer flash holes
Comment from : @njgrplr2007

I have the frankford arsenal and it isn't great Its decent but I'm sure that there are better ways There are areas for inconsistencies with the chamfer and deburr part Keep up the great videos
Comment from : @worksonjunk

Nice video You should review the Frankford Arsenal system $170 that does all three operations and for much less than the Girard I love mine
