What's everyone's thoughts on the new case trimmer by Hornady? Looks eerily similar to another design. I'm liking the micro meter adjustment though. Thinking about pre ordering one to try it out.

Higher quality trimmers worth it?
I’m fine with paying for top quality equipment. Right now I’m using the Frankford arsenal trimmer. I’ve been eyeing a gen 3 Henderson. With all the extras it’s around $1100. Ouch. I understand it’ll save a bit of time over the Frankford, is there any noticeable difference as far as es and sd...

Read through that, and then let us know what you think.
What I am curious about is if you look at the cutting head, it looks almost like a Forster tri-way. If that is the case, and they are interchangeable, would that still limit you to the .30cal I wonder. That what I liked about the Gen2 Henderson, is that I have all the Forster tri-way heads that I need, and now Henderson went to their own cutting heads. But I cannot seem to find a Gen2 Henderson anywhere.
I got to play with a sample at the Dallas Safari Club show over the weekend.
Didn’t have any brass to trim, but initial thoughts are.
1. It is built very well, the “slide” is super smooth and the release of brass it very intuitive.
2. It is stupid quiet, barely even hear the motor running.
All in all, I will definitely buy one, looks to be a hand saver and until someone finds a way to automate one…I think it will be a big hit.
