    need to use a powertrimmer (corona)

    I have about 1,500 5.56/.223 cases to trim. I'm just not in a position to buy a power trimmer ATM.

    When I saw the title I thought you needed to borrow a weedeater. I guess I should start reloading.

                ... and how many times have they been reloaded?

                For my L1A1 7.62 NATO was preferred. .308 brass took a beating and stretched quicker than the mil spec brass. The other thing if your brass needs trimming after one or two uses you may have a 'headspacing' issue.

                  Mostly once fired. Various lengths.

                    I have a 223 possum hallow trimmer that is not getting used in my toolbox.... $26 bucks and it could be yours..

                    It will come with the Power adapter so you can just chuck it to a cordless drill or drill press and trim away.

                      3 seconds each suggest using @ high on a drill press 3000 rpm ^^

                          It's mixed headstamo, if you don't trim your crimps are too inconsistent to use.

                            They are going to be just as consistent as the factory ammo was.

                              Dose it index of the shoulder?
