Lyman CaseTrim Xpress

[Cowcatcher]

@Cowcatcher , do you think it could be made somewhat portable?? I have a ton of 223 brass that needs processed, and on those ultra hot/cold days at work when we make sure the control room is cool/warm enough, I could get SOMETHING done at least ...then I need to figure out a better way to take of crimped primer pockets!

It’s definitely portable. I’ll post some pics. As for swaging, the dillon swager is surely portable I’d say.

Well they did something for you. Did your review ever post?

I checked earlier and it hadn’t

I’m trying to figure out how I uploaded a video to YouTube before and I’ll post a video of the trimmer running full throttle and me taking about 10 thousandths off of some 22-250.

 

[Cowcatcher]

Figured it out.

I'm new to reloading, but I can tell you that after trimming only 50 cases yesterday just using the hand tools, I'm definitely getting one of these! My thumbs are raw! My respect to all of you who've been doing it this way for years!

The bushings listed in orange are included with the trimmer. The other bushings are sold separately for $8-$9.

Great review and thank you for sharing! Just let me know when I need to bring my brass by.

That sucks that they shipped it that way. I wonder if it was dropped shipped.

I don’t think it was according to the label and the locations as I tracked it.
It may have been dropped then shipped

Oooooooohhhhhh ... you are really making me want one. I hate trimming cases, even when I hook up the drill to 'power' trim. That looks so handy and easy. I might actually enjoy trimming cases!

Go ahead and throw down on the Lyman Case prep center. You can see one in the end of his video to the right. That is one of those things I wish I would have gotten sooner. That and a electronic powder measure. The lyman case prep center is a hoss and make quick work of the job. @Cowcatcher has convinced me to get a lyman case trimmer soon also.
