    Outcome was I had a small batch of over depth pockets. Sinclairs said send it back after I complained. Outcome was it cost me to return it, got a refund, net result $0.00. Should have hung on to it methinks now.

    At least the K&M is adjustable.
    The Sinclair cuts deeper and leaves a truly sharp pocket. The K&M is much shallower in cutting. Have destroyed quite a few Sinclair over the years by running them into Mil pockets. You need to swage them first. That hurt. LOL.
