    Dillon RT 1200 Trimmer on LnL AP

    Has anyone had a Dillon RT1200 trimmer on their LnL AP? I had a Dillon 650 before with the trimmer and I remember it had a lot of torque, my only concern was with how it would do with the LnL bushing.

    I found a Video on youtube that uses it and I commented but have not recieved and answer.

    I had a Dillon 1200 for a while; the bushing would back out on every now and then, so your concern is valid.

      When starting the trimmer, just hold onto it for a second. Its the initial jolt of the motor starting that dislodges bushing.

        This might be a dumb question - but why can't you get trimmer dies for the handgun calibers for the Dillon RT1200?

          It might be because almost no one trims pistol brass.

            For the bigger calibers, .44M, 0.50 AE - it would make sense though.

              I wanted to do this but the 300 Whisper die was too short, I had to use a single stage with an extended shell holder.
