    Well, that excludes the Wilson and brings the Lee hand held back into contention.
    I have a very old Forster which I have recently got three way cutters for. It makes an excellent job with trim to length and outside/inside chamfering all done in one operation, at the correct angles.
    If I was starting again I would probably get a Wilson.
    The Little Crow is the one that seems to currently excite people. It is very fast but I don’t like the fact that it indexes off the shoulder rather than the base.
    It all depends upon the level precision you are after. It is all very well to have a super square trimmed case but if the rest of your process uses for example crap dies any precision in trimming is nulled.
    The Lee hand held still does a more than adequate job.
    Beaker and PERRISCICABA like this.
