1Longbow204 Brass Trimming
I picked up a 204 and am now gettingall my reloading equipment in order for this new round. What are you guys using for trimming the brass? I've been using the Lee trimmers for my other calibers,but so far nothing from them. I guess I 'll be purchasing a new trimmer and need to know what your set up is for this round. Please be specific on ,trimmers,pilots,shell holder,etc.
Thanks very much for the info. 1Longbow

bill rI had a 204 and finaly got a pilot from Lyman after that it was easy using a lyman trimer no shell holder required.
I do the same thing as Bill, I have a Lyman trimmer but I just made my own pilot, if you don't have a lathe just chuck a piece of steel or section of large nail into a drill press and take it down with a file. Then take the end down further to form the stud that goes into the cutter.
