1200b Trimmer Maintenance
Quote from Reloader on July 6, 2014, 2:35 amI purchases the Dillon 1200b last year and it has been running flawlessly - Thank you!
I have run as of this week 14,000 rounds of 223 through the trimmer. The case mouth seems to be burring up a little compared to when I first started trimming cases.
Which leads me to my question. I see the blade (part #13141) is a three sided blade which your web site say's is good for hundreds of thousands of rounds. Do you have a little closer round count on when I should expect to turn the blade to a new cutting surface?
Thank you for your help
