NF1E Posted August 17 Report Share Posted August 17 Trimming .223 this morning. Did 500 cases at 1 sec per case. This Giraud powered case trimmer also takes care of the mouth prep at the same time. Whatta Hobby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albroswift Posted August 18 Report Share Posted August 18 I have the old Dillon RT1200 power head trimmer for the 650, flies through them but they need a little case lube on them. Die is almost as tight as a sizing die, maybe to prevent chatter. Set up for 308, 223, 338, 44. Can run sizing/ deprime operation in the first station at the same time. Don't like using the case feeder with the imperial wax on the larger cases, picks up dirt, but the one shot works on the 223 in the feeder.

Jeff300 Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 Just did some LC 5.56 (500 pieces) supposed to be once fired but can’t verify that. Surprised at the variation in length of the brass. Those are nice machine centers the 2 of you have for prep work. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
