Lee quick trim

[3DGearGuy]

Has anyone used this thing yet? Seems like an inexpensive option for trimming/deburr/chamfer in one step. The only downside I see is that you need to buy the individual dies for each caliber but they're under $10 and some of us don't reload too many calibers anyway.

So, if you have tried it out, how do you like it? Any issues?

Got a link?

The Giraud which is touted as the best trimmer, also has individual caliber parts.

The short hand held one with the round wooden handle? If so I can tell you no it was not for me. -g

Come on old men. I know your Google fu isn't that bad.

If you have the time, and aren't trimming mass quantities, this is the affordable way to go. Ergonmically, it isn't well thought out. It's still better than the other handheld case trimmers out there where your fingers and hands fall off after 2-300 cases!

Do yourself a favor and save up so you pay once, cry once. Go with the Giraud Power Trimmer or something less pricey like the RCBS Trim Pro 2.

Not bad for the price,
could have been made a little more durable,
buy extra cutting blades for it

Being the tinkerer that I am, I'm already thinking of a way to make this a powered tool. Maybe a small motor mounted up top instead of the handle so all you have to do is push cases up into the die?

Exactly like that!

It works extremely well. I get consistent cut every time. Takes about 5 seconds per case. I'm very happy with it and wish Lee would build something like this (less than $50).
