Need Suggestions - Power Screwdriver - Case Prep

After 40+ years of handloading these hands don't work so well anymore due to arthritis. So I need something to made it easier to prep cases, namely uniforming primer pockets and deburring primer flash holes which take the most toll on my hands doing it manually. Therefore I'm searching for a power screwdriver that's reloader friendly and will take the adapters Sinclair sells. Would appreciate your suggestions.


P.S. Not interested in one of those case prep machines - I perfer to use a powder screwdriver with adapters.
 
Same boat as you. I use a Hitachi adjustable speed drill that I attach to my bench. I operate the power with a foot switch. Works just great. Very easy on the fingers.
 
I found a Makita power driver laying in the road around 4 years ago. I ran it for a month
before the battery finally went dead. I mostly run Snap On in my Job. I was so impressed,
I bought a set from Homey Depot mainly to get the Charger and a couple more batteries.
I use it with the Sinclair drivers for neck turning and case prep. It blows the Snap On
driver out of the water for 1/4 the price. It's the 10 volt small nut driver type, Black and white. Comfortable in the hand
 
I'm also interested is some SMALL hand held screwdriver that will hold the pocket cleaner.

I use a Milwaukee m12 works great.my
Fingers&hands hurt to.
 
Black & Decker power screw driver. $20.00 at the big box stores and the last forever.
It's got to have a Chuck to hold pocket cleaner & other tools.
.......
I see Chucks for 7.oo that fit screw driver.
I may have to get this going.

I've got a couple of battery operated drills, but also a table top drill press from H. Freight. Now I mostly use the drill press. Much faster, easier than electric drills. I can trim to length with my Worlds Finest Trimmer, PP uniform, and chamfer very quickly.
