Which Case Trimmer for 308 Win to 470 Nitro?
Which Case Trimmer for 308 Win to 470 Nitro?
I am looking to buy a case trimmer that can trim cases from 308 Win up to 470 Nitro. I normally buy RCBS products so was looking at their case trimmers first. Can the RCBS High Capacity Case Trimmer trim small cases such as 308 Win or will I need to buy a second case trimmer for smaller cases? The RCBS Trim Pro 2- Manual Case Trimmer can only trim cases up to 338 Lapua in size. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Little CrowThey don't show a 4700, but certainly they should be able to make you one. This trimmer is awesome, fast, consistent!

The Hornady is what I use for 470NE.

Andre MertensFor decades I've used Lyman's Universal Trimmer (with power adaptor added in the meantime) but it is gatering dust since I discovered the little Lee trimmers. One per caliber, cheap, nothing to adjust, fast when used with an electric screwdriver.

3 shots do not make a group, they show a point of aim or impact.
5 shots are a group.
Thanks for your comments. I did some research into the little crow products. Very impressive.

ledvmIt is hard to beat the Lee Trimmers IMHO.

TexKDWhile I have a high volume trimmer from Giraud Tool , my Wilson -Sinclair micrometer trimmer has handled all my trimming before. It is a high quality cutter you wont have to buy but once. It does require individual case holders so you would have to check on the Nitro - but assuming it will do it, you will be set.

RustyI already have 450/400 3 inch and 404 Jeffery from
Little Crow. Very nice people to deal with. The two cutters above were not listed, but they made them at my request!
