[QUOTE="Steve Shelp, post: 29639, member: 22"] Here's some images of the actual tool and some of the actual bulets I fired through my LG rifle during this test session of unaltered, trimmered, and tipped bullets. Dave Tooley's trimmer (L ->R) cutting head with stop coller that sets the amount of cutting depth, next is the body that the cutter rotates in and has a plastic collar pressed into the opposite end that is cut like a throat would be in your rifle. This is the stop that the bullet seats against while being trimmed. Last is the bullet itself. [img]http://www.nc1000ydshooters.com/images/DSC00716.jpg[/img] Next is how I hold it while trimming. The cutter sticking out the right side is turned by hand or can be chucked up in a drill for power if your doing a large batch. [img]http://www.nc1000ydshooters.com/images/DSC00717.jpg[/img] next is a picture of 30 rounds of ammo for my LG just before firing, showing the unaltered meplats, trimmed meplats, and plastic tipped meplats.
