    I didn't know that Lee made that. I will be looking into that. Thanks for your $0.02!

    Here's one at Titan reloading. I use it for .308, .223, 30-30, and 30-06

    Yup. I got that one sitting in a wishlist. I thinks that's the way I'm going to go. Get a Lyman and put that setup on one of the stations.

    With the lee case trimmer you need to put each case in a locking type shell holder and tighten it before you can trim. This works, however it takes more time to do this. With the FA you just hold the case in your hand.... Also with the FA you can adjust adjust the trim length.

    I ended up with the Frankford arsenal trim station. If I only loaded for one or two calibers, and did bulk loading, I think that the giraud tri way would be the way to go. I load for almost 40 different bottleneck rifle calibers, and the ability of the Frankford arsenal trimmer, to trim them all, is invaluable to me. I’ve trimmed about 2000 cases on it so far and am as pleased as could be. I didn’t do all 2000 at once, as I am not a bulk loader, but I do batches of 100 or 200 at a time, for different rifles.
