    Case Trimming the 9.3x62

    I have got a Lyman Acculine case trimmer but not the guide/cutter for a 9.3. I dont think there is one. I cant find a Lee case length gauge in the country. How are people trimming their 9.3x62 cases?

    There is supposedly a 9mm and a .35 pilot, surely one of them would do?
    The trimmer supposedly comes with both these, I have the same trimmer bought nearly 30 years, I'll see what pilots I have.

    I have the same pilots as come with the trimmer nowadays, including a 9mm one.

    It looks like you need the #36/9.3mm one, Workshop Innovation/Reloading Direct have one in stock according to their website.

    @JohnDuxbury I can turn you one in an instant for 9.3
    I have made all the odd size ones for my cases
    50 cal
    45
    375
    9.3

    Just flick me a PM with the shank size and length
    It looks identical to my RCBS trimmer

    Cigar you rock. I looked at Reloading Direct and I didn't see what you saw. Your googling is superlative. I just ordered it.
