rcbs trim pro
Thinking about tring to speed up the trimming process. I have a lil wilson and a lyman universal trimmer now. Do many of you use a power trimmer? What kind do you prefer?
I noticed they are not even offered in the sinclair catolog and might not be up to snuff for the bench rest folks. I'm not quite as fussy with my varmint ammo and just tring to cut down my time at the bench.

I use the manual RCBS trim Pro but added my own replaceable battery rechargeable electric screwdriver to the trimmer mounted in a homemade holder to do the turning..the power assy for the RCBS was too expensive imo......it is working well for me in varmint shells..the handle and shell plate make for fast change of shells and with good cases the alignment is very good.....the Gracey and Dillon seem to be more popular among high volumne trimmers......HTH..good luck and good shooting-loading!!

Have you considered using the RCBS X-sizer in lieu of case trimming? I burn quite a few rounds of 22-250 and call me lazy but for as many of those rounds I shoot, I would go nuts trimming cases. I have been pleased with the x-sizer's ability to control the growth and eliminate the need for trimming. Just a thought.
