[QUOTE="entoptics, post: 2892842, member: 104268"] I have two of the FA trimmers, because my first one started making a pretty obnoxious noise, so FA just sent me a brand new one without taking the old one back. That was 4 or 5 years ago, and both trimmers are still working great after many thousands of trims/chamfers/deburs/etc... For bulk processing of brass, they are really hard to beat. They are very consistent at what they do. i.e. Trimming to a constant [I][U]neck[/U] length. [/I]I think some folks that complain about variation in OAL with the FA trimmer, aren't taking into consideration that some of that variation is likely in their base to shoulder dimension from FL sizing sizing. After trimming, I can measure OAL, and it correlates directly to base to shoulder, which tells me that the neck length is spot on. As mentioned, make sure to keep a sharp cutter on there. [/QUOTE]
