.223 Cham/Deburr after trimming with RT1500?

Recently got a RT1500 to process the backup of 223 brass I have. 
 

Problem:
Brass coming off the press has a pretty solid edge that feels like the inside edge needs to be deburred. I took a paper clip and drug it across the inside lip and could feel it hang up/drag. Is that normal for this case trimmer? 

I assume the crimp will take care of the outside edge when I actually load it. 

Currently on a 2 process cycle on a 1050
Wet Tumble them first since I have been shooting suppressed

 

Station 1: Redding Size/Deprime

Station 2: Dillon swage

Last station: RT1500

 

I have put the trimmed cases in both the wet tumbler and a dry tumbler and neither are fully removing the lip. I'm fearful that the lip will drag on the bullet and cause issues when loading/shooting. Is that stupid and I'm just overthinking it or is it actually going to be a problem.

Is the M die specific to 223/5.56?  The lyman site only shows 222.  

 

Edit:never mind - found it at Midway...

 

thanks
