Ok, thought that was correct. Just not another way to measure once, cut once. Just get tired of that ooops, grab another one.Calipers?
Maybe I'm missing the point of your question here.
Yes, there will be some back-n-forth measure-trim-measure-trim-some-more-measure-dammit-cut-too-much-grab-another-measure-trim-measure...
Once you get is set, if the trimmer is worth what it costs as scrap metal, it should be set until you're done trimming - barring anything coming loose, etc.
I'm using the Hornady case trimmer with a power adapter so I can use my drill for power.What is the best way to measure the proper length so I am not trying and adjusting interminably?
Trim die and a file for me. I've also used a Lee case trim tool. I like those pretty well.
I found this in their catalog.Does Lee have custom trim pilots?
