    I didn't realize this was a competition...
    I was just sharing my experience with the Frankford and what I learned from it. [emoji106]

    I have the Triway for doing .223 cases where I'll prep 500 or so at a time. The Frankfort works great for the rest of my rifle stuff where I prep 100 or so at a time. It'll trim and prep 100 cases in less than a half hour, sure beats doing them by hand.

    That is what I’m graduating from, by hand. I’m excited. Just got it put together. Can’t wait to try it out tomorrow.

    Finally got to use it this weekend. I am very pleased with it so far. I’ve trimmed about 300 brass( 6.5 Swede and 308). Works perfect for me. Was very easy to set the trim length on too.

    I replaced the cutting head with the RCBS carbide cutter. Made a big difference when trimming brass that ran long.

    Thanks for that advice. I will definitely look into getting one of those.

    My brother has the Franklin and we all use it for our hunting rifles where we dont need to do large lots. It works great. For the guns that we shoot a lot for I bought the Triway and it saves a lot of time. I just cannot justify the expense of getting them for a batch of 1-200 per year. In that volume I think the Franklin is the more logical choice.
