Lyman used to make a trimmer that you set up on a drill press. Don't think they are manufactured anymore, but I know where there is a NIB one.
Lee case trimmer and lock stud has always worked well for me. Just have to buy the length gauge and shellholder for whatever caliber you're trimming. Stick it in a drill and go to town.
Case Trimmer Cutter Lock Stud
How does that one adjust?
Hmm, that's exactly how much you'd have to trim off a 358 Winchester case to make it an Indiana-legal 1.800". Sounds like someone bought him a 358 Hoosier!
Using the Lee hand trimmers is ok for a few, gets tough to hold the trimmer after a while. I don't mind it for 10 or so but not for large quantities. Just my
They're not making the length gauge for the 300BLK yet as far as I can tell.
I've been considering one of those cheap mini-chop saws from Harbor Freight for $40 and then the Forster for the final trim.
Looks like July at least. Case Length Gage Shellholder 300 AAC Blackout
With the demand for 300 blackout stuff you would think they would be all over it to make all the money they could.
Guys, guys...you're over-thinking this! There are so many short 30 caliber cartridges out there; just buy a Lee case length gauge/trimmer for the 7.62x39 and carefully shorten the pin. Better yet, see if you can order one from Lee for the 300 Whisper. I'm sure they make it and that case is only about .030" longer, so it would be a piece of cake to shorten the pin.
Since I have decided on just 100 working brass for the .358 Hoosier and I will be doing 50 for a buddy, I thinking about just getting a plain Hornady hand turned trimmer.
