[QUOTE="Daveinjax, post: 879294, member: 48429"] I would not include Hornady in the list of quality equipment. Well advertised but not well finished imo. I've owned a half dozen of their dies and a scale and Camlok trimmer ( a real *** design and poorly finished ). All suffered in comparison to other brands . Inexpensive Lee has been as good as any of the others and I use their collet neck die for most of my sizing work along with Forster bullet seaters. Any of the heavy cast iron presses will do the job but I really like my Forster co-ax press. Any trimmer that uses a shellholder and presses the case forward to grip it is inherently inaccurate. You are sizing from the front of the rim and your neck will vary the amount of the rim variation , often 3 to 5 thousandths. That effects neck tension and ultimate long range accuracy. I use a wilson trimmer these days and I'm very pleased. I find it a lot of fun and relaxing. [/QUOTE]
