I,ts either this or what else?

Wow, for $300+ it appears that this is a hand cranked device. A lot of cash for this device if it has no A/C power. The Hornady site lists it as "coming soon" with a suggested list of $431.

I would just spend around $100 and get the powered RCBS Trim Mate. I love mine!

The device is called the "power case prep center"

I'm not sure why there is a crank handle on top.

[Rhys898]

pretty sure the handle on top is to lower the case onto the cutter to trim to length and/or uniform the inside neck diameter.

could the crank be there to lock in the case

No, that's the small lever right above the case.

Someone (other than me) buy one, so we can get an answer to this question.

Not many details

You could get a Gracey or Giraud trimmer for less. It isn't intuitively obvious what problem this elegent solution resolves....

anyone ever call hornady? they have a funny recording im on hold now

[freonr22]

ok it is electric, the motor is in the bottom, the handle i guess sets the height and i think the lever is once the hieght is set, maybe some sort of spring loaded thingy to remove and reload a case @ same height. per bob @ hornady due in July
