Yes the brass will be just for one rifle and I will be crimping. I'm not worried about the dents much but just for new brass I expected better. But anyway, has anyone used the trim dies that are available compared to hand trimming? Hand trimming is a pain, I can never seem to get the same out come with the settings and have to just trim little by little and check after each time.

How is the le Wilson? A power trimmer would be great but don't think it's needed for my type of shooting (times I go). I have used the RCBS hand trimmer and it is getting to be a great pain as it never sets right anymore. I never heard of the brand you suggested.

I use a Foster case trimmer. Very accrete and easy to use.

personally i really like the cts you just chuck it in a drill or drill press and its super fast super accurate but if you want to use the bench mount wilson it's super and i don't even waste my time with all the others i have !

Gunsmith said it is short stroking the lighter bullets. I'll just stick to the heavier types.

What does that comment have to do with what your thread is about regarding trimming cases?
