I do the same as Catfish. I just hook up a regular old drill motor to my RCBS trimmer. But I still get somewhat (.005"?) different lengths due to the amount needed to tighten the collet on an individual case head. More necessary tightening produces a longer trim length. I do try to keep that cross bar on the collet in the same position each time if I can. Not sure that .005" makes a lot of difference on trim length, but I do kinda wish they would all be the same.
BTW, I have the neck turning/boring bar combo that fits this trimmer too and it also works well motorized. I motorize my flash hole deburrer and uniformer too. I guess I'm just lazy, LOL.
