Lee Power trimmer - anyone had experience with this?

Post by Paul » 22 Jul 2020, 9:20 pm

HI folks,

I'm looking to set up a load press after using the Lee Hand loader for many years. One thing I am also looking to get away from is the repetitive wrist work of trimming and chamfering and I came across the Lee Delux Power Quick Trim (https://leeprecision.com/deluxe-power-quick-trim.html).

Has anyone had experience with this or offer any components, and pros and cons? Especially if you have used or own one.

Many thanks in advance. BTW, looking to put this on a Lee Classic Cas single stage.

Cheers,

Paul

I know you’re not asking about it Paul, but have you ever tried the

In a cordless drill, with the wooden ball handle thingy? I.e:

I just turned around 50 cases in 12 minutes, and they are uniform.
At what point does lack of maintenance become patina?

Yeah in2, done that for a while. Biggest issue is the cartridge coming loose from the shell holder regularly and not being centered etc. And having to tighten the shell holder so tight its then awkward to undo. Had enough of that mucking around so looking to make it more simple and mechanized and less wrist work.

Thanks for your follow up too :-)

Cheers,

Paul
