    Lee Chamfer and Deburring tool

    Anyone have experience with this? I don't understand how to chamfer with it. Instead I've been using the teeth on a tongue-and-groove pliers to get the job done.

      To chamfer stick it in (giggity) and twist. Works like a champ

        Deburring tool works fine. The chamfer can leave a ring around the case if it touches the edges while you spin it, but didn't work too well. I chucked mine in a socket, forgot what size but it was a tight fit so it didn't spin either. Place some blue painters tape on the edge of the chamfer to prevent the above.

        I ended up just dumping it, and buying a Lyman's drill bit chamfer, deburr, and cleaning set for $30.

          I have one but prefer the RCBS tool for a hand one. Now I use the Lyman case prep center and it is nice and fast.
          A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

              I used the lee tool for about 500 rounds and gave up on it.

              buy the lyman set and use your drill. SO much easier. your fingers will thank you.

                This is what I like to use when deburring and chamfering by hand:


                I thought the Lee tool was the only tool they made that I was unable to use successfully. HOWEVER, once I chucked the case into a case holder operated by a drill (used for case trimming), the Lee tool worked like a charm. SUCCESS!
