Anyone using RCBS 3 way trimmer head

[35WD]

Loading a bunch of .223 that need to be trimmed. Getting a little tired of the three step trim, champher and debur process. Anyone using the 3 way trimmer from RCBS? I got on the Midway site and there were about 13 glowing reports. However the last 3 or 4 bad mouthed the product.

It is awesome. You will not be disappointed.

It's all in the adjusting of the tool.

Had mine a long time, it took a little time to get it set up at first. I haven't had to adjust it for years now. It works great, cuts fast, and I'm still kicking myself for not getting one sooner.

I'm using one for 25 cal. As mentioned it took a bit to get it set up but now I just turn the handle

I have the 20, 22 and 6mm three way cutters and love them. They sure make a boring job go faster.

Best thing since sliced bread! I wish RCBS would bring back the Trim Gauges too.

Got one and used it on the last batch of brass and I have to say, why did I wait so long to get one!

I just got one last week, besides the time getting it set up like the others said why did I wait 40 years.

I have 3, they work good but I haven't used them in years. I have a 30 cal, a 270 and a 7mm. Anybody want one of them? Or all 3.

I have been considering this option as well. Sure seems like it would be worth while to cut down on the time spent prepping. That is if it works smoothly and consistantly.

280fan- PMed you about that 30cal cutter, thanks.

Once you get them adjusted correctly they work great.

How will you know when it is set correctly?

 

[Okdave]

When the cases are chamfered and deburred correctly. Both are adjustable and it just takes a little time set it up correctly. Thats why I only use mine on 1 caliber. You can get pilots for different calibers but have to adjust everything when you change them.

One thing I'd caution against is trying to set one up to do .22 Hornet cases. My neighbor tried it and I don't recall whether it turned out to be possible, but if it was it required modification of the cutter due to the relatively thin brass in the Hornet's neck.

I have never trimmed brass any other way. I love them. I hate trimming brass. May as well make it as effecient as possible.
