Giraud power trimmer

[kylec]

I found a good deal on one and bit the bullet. It comes with 2 heads and holders for .223, .308, .300blk, and .30-06

I jumped on it quick because it was a good deal. All I know is that they're supposed to be the best.

What do I need to know about them?

How much of a deal was it and do you want to sell it? Iv'e herd nothing but good things. Just wish I had one.

Use the search function and look for Giraud, powered case trimmer, case trimmer, or anything similar and you'll get dozens, if not hundreds, of returns.

Watch some videos of adjusting the blade

Adjust the blade for the proper chamfer, get some locking die rings so you can lock down the caseholders when you swap out.

Turn the case a half turn or so while cutting

Will any die rings work or just the ones from Giraud?

Any. I have the Redding rings off a couple dies and a couple hornady on others. Just like with a press they screw in until it seats against the lock ring: it’s a depth stop. Same spot each time.
