Mr. 16 gauge,

The guys gave you good advice. I use a Pacific, Forster and Lyman hand crank, bench-mounted trimmers. The Pacific uses the same shell holder as when reloading and is a nice tool. The old Forster has a "Universal Chuck" that accepts any case and you just change the Pilot. The Lyman is also "Universal Chuck", is beefier than the Forster and more to my liking. I just change pilots to trim other calibers.

The Universal Chuck is so very handy that I would go for it in your trimmer. I never went to a power trimmer with drill presses, etc., since I can do 50 cases in less than hour and that includes the champfer and deburr process. Hope this helps.

Adam
