Need a trimmer for about 4000 pieces of 5.56 brass. Also have the oddball lots of a 100 cases for various calibers - .243, 6.5 CM, 300 win, etc.
I definitely want something that trims, chamfers and deburrs all in one operation for the 4000 pieces of 5.56, as it will save me a lot of time. The two options I've come across are the Trim-It II and the Giraurd Triway. The Trim-It can be modified to trim multiple calibers and the Triway is specific to one caliber.
Curious how hard it is to setup the Trim-It. Is is worth fussing with for 100 pieces of brass once every 5 years? I'll probably mess up 5 cases before I get things set right.
It might be worth it to buy a dedicated trimmer for the 5.56 and then just get something else to trim the random calibers and chamfer and deburr them by hand.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
