I recently got a used Redding case trimmer off eBay. I don't have the model number in front of me but it is the more simple one without the micrometer adjustment.
I trimmed several cases with it and so far I'm not impressed. The collet which grabs the case rim is inconsistent and difficult to get it lined up, and once my stop is set up it is difficult to determine when you've made it there.
I've even undertrimmed a few cases once I (thought I) had it set up on one of the proper length. There is just no "feel".
To get to my point, using this trimmer on a large quantity of cases (I reload for myself and three sons) is going to be extremely tedious.
Any suggestions on trimmers which index well and produce consistent results are greatly appreciated.
