Is it starting to make sloppy cuts?

 

Nope. The Dillon website says the blade edge should last "hundreds of thousands of cases", which seems like a bold claim. If correct, the current blade will outlast me in light of my usage, but I was just wondering what other folks have experienced.

I've only had to change mine once and not because it trimmed Many thousands of rounds.   For what ever reason, the locking ring loosened up during a run and the carbide hit the bottom of the die (Trimming .223 - It seems that the trimmer needs to be pretty close to the bottom of the trim die to have it cut to the correct Cartridge length).   But I believe I've trimmed over 50,000 pieces of brass with the carbide that is in there now.
