What's the fastest way to trim brass?

[gmar]

I'm currently using a Lee gauge trimmer with the lock stud attached to a power drill and it seems to take forever. What do you guys use and what's the fastest way to trim brass?

This is what I use.

How many pieces of brass do you estimate you can do in a hour?

I use this for 5.56mm : http://www.giraudtool.com/prod02.htm

It will trim, inside and outside chamfer several hundred per hour.

I use a Dillon 1200 electric trimmer on a Dillon 650 progressive.

I have to admit the fastest I have seen is this one http://www.forsterproducts.com/catalog.asp?prodid=623138 Once you get it set go to town! I still use an RCBS but I attach my 1/2" drill motor up to it. Later,

It will all depend on how stretched your brass is. I'll say 200 5.56 in an hour, maybe more if the wife leaves me alone!!

All of everyone's options looks A LOT better than what I'm doing. I definitely need to change my way to increase my prep time.

Thanks for everyone's advice!
