My new reloading toy!!

mossy33oak · 12-30-2006, 08:32 PM

OMG I am in love!!!! The other day I was faced with the dreaded job of trimming about 150 casings so I started and it took me about a half an hour to do 15-20 by hand, and my fingers and elbow felt like it was about to fall off. So I called Cabelas and found out I had $160 in club points so I ordered the RCBS Trim pro motorized trimmer. It came right after christmas so tonite I sat out to assemble it and read the instructions. It was a snap so I decided to start trimming some. Well in 1 hour and 45 minutes I had it opened, assembled, and all remaining 130 casings trimmed and loaded into my tumbler!!!! What a god send this device is! I will never trim again with elbow grease!

Whomever thought of putting a little 110v motor on these things should receive some kind of major award!!

Reread his last comment, I think it was the picture he intended. Too funny.

Slap one of these on your new trimmer and really save some time.

I know what you mean about doing them up by hand. Using the Lee tool cramps my hand after about 5 and really gets me to rethinking about the whole reloading deal lol. Oh well, thats why I do 20 at a time and make sure that I get all 20 done before quitting.
