Lee Rope Pull Case Trimmer

[CocoBolo]

Ok, I only load .223 once a year cause I hate trimming cases. So I had this Lee trimmer with the rope pull. Talk about torture, well after shopping all the case trimmers and going you don't load enough it came to me.

I chucked the cutter into a vise and removed the wooden knob. Next I chucked it up into the drill press flipped the switch and started trimming. It cuts more consistently in the Drill press than it ever did on the rope pull. It is fast and easy, I kept the drill press on the slow speed so I don't fry the cutters and it does a case about ever 3 or 4 seconds and that is probably more than it needs.

I also use the cheap Lee primer pocket reamer, yep you guessed it chucked up in the drill press.

I searched and didn't see that anyone had posted this.
