[QUOTE="M1A1ABRAMS, post: 2726213, member: 123811"] So a few case trimmer stations have been out for a while now. And most of you guys have used them religiously. I would like to know which ones are worth buying ? What are the pluses & minuses. The simplicity of them to set up w/ out sacrificing to much brass. I was looking at the Frankford & Lyman. I like the fact the Frankford does more to the case while prepping. Is there anything better ? I have a Lyman manual trimmer. Not exactly the easiest to set up for precision & don't like the way it marks up the inside of necks. Some of the brass I have is really hard to replace. So I would like to retain what I have as long as possible. I would imagine this issue has been addressed before. But has anything really changed ? I saw a system yesterday called the Trimit 2, that looked promising ? But it seems they are hard to come by. And I know Giraud makes one specific caliber. But I really liked the Trimit 2 for the fact you can switch the caliber with a different bushing. And it had a fine adjustment on it. No need to buy another complete system. I know you may think of it as a cheesy set up. But this is more for a on the road type tool. To use with a Lee hand loader. And to have if power goes out. If anyone has one I would be interested in purchasing for a reasonable price. Brownells carry the bushings for the Trimit 2 but not the tool. And has anyone even tried it ? [/QUOTE]
