Case trimmer
Quote from Reloader on November 18, 2008, 2:46 pmI just bought a 650 & love the idea of the case trimmer for my .223. The question I have is can I get a cutting head that deburrs the inside and outside of the case at the same time it trims it like I have for my RCBS trimmer?

Quote from Reloader on December 9, 2008, 9:54 pmI trim my 223/5.56 every time, because it is so easy and that is how I resize the outside of the case. After the initial trim with the 1200, my cases don't grow very much and there is hardly a burr anyway. Then in the first stage of my reloading tool head, I have a neck size only die. As it is expanding the inside of the case neck, the burr just kind of goes away. I load non-boattailed bullets without a problem. I see no difference in accuracy if I de-burr or not.
Here is how I trim brass:
