Automated case trimming.

The RT1200/RT1500 is sweet. I have an RT1200, might upgrade to the 1500 now that I have a 1050.

I use my GTC for long-range loads, for anything where in going to get most of my brass back. It's a gem.

Have you used the GTC? It takes care of length and in+out mouth bevel, at the same time, in about 3-5 seconds per case. It doesn't get much faster.

I used to have one. Wasn't crazy about it, but many people obviously are. I forget what I didn't like about it at the time, but if I recall, it was annoying to change calibers, and I didn't always get as even a trim as I would like. The cost of trimming a bunch of calibers was also annoying. Maybe I should revisit it, and might if my poor mans auto doesn't work out well.

The press setup that I linked to is similar to my setup, but I have an automatic case ejector coming from Inline Fabrication, so it should be at least as quick as the Giraud, if not quicker. The foot pedal is pretty cool.

A fair point. Caliber changes, if you don't have additional blade holder with blades, can be slow.

The Inline Fabrication case ejector for the RockChucker is a really nice addition.

Good luck with your search.

I hate brass prep, especially trimming.

Thanks.

I set up a second(or first, I guess) tool head for prepping my .223 cases on the Load Master.
prep turret
Station 1 - Decap
Station 2 - Size and prime
Station 3 - Empty
Station 4 - Quick Trim
Station 5 - Empty

loading turret

Station 1 - Empty
Station 2 - Powder Charge (currently with Auto Disk, double disk and spring return but I will be switching to the new Auto Drum measure soon)
Station 3 - Hornady Powder Check
Station 4 - bullet seat
Station 5 - Lee Factory Crimp

I clean the cases then lube with Lee case lube thinned with 90% isopropyl alcohol, run them through the case prep turret then load and a quick tumble of the finished cartridges.

Of course this doesn't work for military once fired the first time around. Those I decap and swage single stage.

I've since moved on to a Dillon Rapid Trimmer on my 650 with a Swage-It...but before, I used a Little Crow Gunworks World's Fastest Trimmer like this..

Sure does! I put one on my rockchucker just because it cuts time on removing primers, one less step.

I have the WFT for 308, but I don't load 308 anymore. I recall it working well, but I think I had to chamfer and deburr still. A friend just showed me this. Looks great, and he says it works great. If they made it for 300wm, I'd buy one.

That sure looks to be a well made tool, but $275.00? I guess I'm just a cheapskate. The Lee Quick Trim Deluxe is hard to beat and precise/repeatable.
